Asap!
what were indentured servants?
why was the slave trade started in the colonies?
explain the headright system.

Indentured servants were people who were hired to work for a person on their farm for a certain time in exchange for transport to the free world and food and shelter for about five to seven years.

it was cheaper to buy slaves instead of indentured servants.

the head right system was a system to create more people to come to the americas in 1618 which gave you a area of 50 acres of land in virginia. rich people played for poor people to come over to the americas for land. for every person or slave you would earn a slave and 50 acres of land.

Slander.
