To determine the correct answer to this question, we need to examine the options and eliminate those that do not correspond to the reasons why the English did not try to settle North America earlier.
Option A suggests that the English were not as strong as their European neighbors. While it is true that England was not the most powerful country in Europe during certain periods, it does not provide a solid reason why they did not attempt to settle North America earlier.
Option B suggests that the English were isolationists and preferred to keep to themselves. However, this is not a valid reason as England was engaged in various forms of colonization and exploration during different periods.
Option C suggests that the English did not believe there was anything of value in North America. This is also not an accurate reason, as they eventually realized the vast economic potential of North America, including valuable resources and new trade routes.
Option D suggests that the English did not have trained sailors to make the trip to North America. This is the most accurate reason among the given options. During the 1500s, England was establishing its naval power and developing the necessary expertise in navigation, exploration, and shipbuilding. This limited their ability to undertake long and arduous journeys to settle in North America.
Therefore, the correct answer is D: They did not have trained sailors to make the trip to North America.
