Explanation:

Jamestown was founded in 1607 and thrived as Virginia's capital for 100 years. It was the first financially successful English colony in the "new world." This was not always the case in Jamestown. However, it eventually became a thriving port town that had many passerbys on their way to start tobacco plantations and new settlers.

the catholic church withhold people's access to the bible during the middle ages.

people could go to church and listen to the teachings, but it was absolutely forbidden to own and/or read the books of both the old and new testaments. it was also prohibited to translate the books (which where originally in biblical hebrew) to any other language.

this was done so the church could remain in control of what their teachings were and to enhance their importance and power, while also being able to judge people's actions through information that was unavailable for the general public.

its main object was the establishment of "settlement houses" in poor urban areas, in which volunteer middle-class "settlement workers" would live, hoping to share knowledge and culture with, and alleviate the poverty of, their low-income neighbors.
