Answer: I can try :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamestown, founded in 1607, was the first successful permanent English settlement in what would become the United States. They started importing hired workers, successful planters could fulfill their need for labor while amassing additional land. The opportunity to realize substantial profits from growing tobacco while accumulating land sparked the spread of settlement.
