Discuss how the geopolitical competition in North America from the late 1500s to the 1770s shaped the thirteen English colonies and led to their ultimate rebellion against the mother country and their declaration of independence.

Hint: Think broadly here as you scattershot/concept map your essay before writing. If you do not know what the term "geopolitical" means, look it up in a dictionary before you do anything else. Who are the key European powers in North America during this time period? Who are the key American Indian powers/confederacies during this time period? How do these powers interact? How does this interaction change over time? What role does geography play on this interaction? What is the impact of these international relations on social, political, and economic development in the English colonies? How does this change over time? How do imperial conflicts and concerns shape the colonies?

Note that you need not answer all of these questions in your essay, they are just questions to consider as you put forth your best answer to the prompt.
