You're welcome.
You are correct! Option A is the correct answer: The Virginia Company's advertising campaign to English citizens in the early 1600s described how colonization of the New World would help England expand its empire, encouraging citizens to invest in the company.
To arrive at this answer, you can analyze the options provided and eliminate the ones that are not accurate. Let's break it down:
Option B states that the advertising campaign described how colonization of Virginia was an act of war against the indigenous peoples, resulting in citizens refusing to invest in the company. However, there is no historical evidence to support this claim.
Option C suggests that the advertising campaign described how colonization of India would bring wealth to anyone involved, leading citizens to volunteer for expeditions. However, the question specifically asks about the Virginia Company and its colonization efforts in the New World, not India.
Option D proposes that the advertising campaign described how colonization of the New World was against God's will, leading citizens to protest against the English monarchy. However, there is no historical evidence to suggest that this was the focus of the Virginia Company's advertising campaign.
By process of elimination, you can conclude that option A, which describes how colonization of the New World would help England expand its empire, encouraging citizens to invest in the company, is the best answer.
