Wondering how the first colonists felt, when they first arrived to the new world, Emily Amend and I started to play a game called Civilization IV. Civilization IV is a game that allows its players to create settlements, occupations, and alliances with others that would allow the citizens within the settlements to survive. Civilization IV, also, allows its players to feel like they were actually just coming over to America because the players had to make decisions that the first colonists had to decide for themselves- without knowing what kind of consequences entailed. In the colonization game, Emily Amend and I had six thriving settlements-Jamestown, Puddin, Wifey, Dogtown, bcygcfgxcgxc, and Georgia, but we encountered many obstacles within

The first settlement I created was Jamestown, and I placed Jamestown right by the water, so when the boat arrived back from England with new supplies, it would have a settlement right there to unload food, tools, and more people. Jamestown would be the settlement for docks, fishing, and fisherman. From history class, I learned that the real Jamestown colony was settled right by the water also, in hopes of allowing the Jamestown colony to thrive. The second settlement I created was Puddin, and I placed Puddin right by a river to improve the outcome of the survival of the citizens living within. The settlement Puddin was near both water and trees, so Puddin would be the settlement for lumber making. Puddin would be the settlement for lumber mills, carpenters, and lumberjacks. The third settlement I created was Wifey, and I placed Wifey right by the water. The settlement Wifey was the settlement for storage because, from everything I have learned so far in history class and from this game, your economy and survive rate will not be good …show more content…
When I first started to play the game, I was a part of France, but then I had to restart the game. Once I restarted the game, I decided to be a part of Great Britain. Back to when I was a part of France, I had some troubles trading with others. The Indians knew how to trade right- they wanted open borders, and I wanted gold, so we both got what we desired. But, on the other hand, the Dutch and English and Spanish all wanted open borders, but the Dutch and English and Spanish chose not to give me anything in return so I didn’t trade with them. I learned that being a part of France other countries had no issue trading with me. But, once I became English, it seemed like to me that I had to pay more to receive or negotiate in a trade. Once I found the peninsula on 1501 A.D. and decided that was where I wanted to live, the surrounding Native Americans wanted $195 of gold so I did to live peacefully. Because from class, when and the French gave me a world map Whether it was the Dutch, French, Spanish, English, or Native Americans, to receive even the simplest trading items, I had to pay what it seemed like an arm and a leg. At the end of the colonization game, I sent my horse scout to the surrounding Native American Tribes-Chichill Bidagoteel, Para, Logan, Sy Ara, Tiis Tseba, and Agueybana- to trade our gold with. I had $1522 of gold, but as my horse scout went around, I negotiated $50, $100, $500,
