Document Summary

Pope day: parade degrading the pope, massive brawls for fun, staunchly anti-catholic. Add in transit time: customs tax at all ports. Even more costly: more english officials introduced into the colonies. To enforce them: colonist built ships are now considered english. Make no mistake, the puritans had their shit together economically. Witch trials: overrated, but local economic conflicts. Royal navy is really badass: colonists are helping with this, royal navy quickly become the strongest in the world. Colonists like the navigation acts: they want to feel british. Religious reforms in britain: first great awakening, whitefield. Baptists emerge: with others, even african slaves experienced this awakening. Colonists already thinking about what would happen in the event of disaster: banding together just in case, just in case the king is an asshat. 7 years war: tension at the ohio river, not only the spark for 7 years war but the spark for the american revolution.
