Well, buckle your podcast seatbelts, because we are getting to a point where a lot of stuff happens in a really short time. Welcome to the 1700’s! If you ask the question, which century ‘shaped our modern world’ the most, I think I might pick the 1700’s. A lot of influential stuff happened in the 1700’s.
So as we start this crucial century, I thought I should set the stage by talking about each of the 13 English Colonies in the New World. But before I get to them, I should mention what else is going on in the New World, besides the English colonies.
