Which best describes the Virginia Company’s advertising campaign to English citizens in the early 1600s?
It described how colonization of Virginia was an act of war against the indigenous peoples, resulting in citizens refusing to invest in the company.
It described how colonization of the New World was against God’s will, resulting in citizen protests against the English monarchy.

No, the first statement is not accurate. The Virginia Company's advertising campaign in the early 1600s did not frame colonization as an act of war against indigenous peoples, resulting in citizens refusing to invest in the company.
To find the correct answer, let's analyze the other options:
The second statement suggests that the advertising campaign portrayed colonization of the New World as against God's will, resulting in citizen protests against the English monarchy. However, this is not an accurate description of the Virginia Company's advertising campaign.
The third statement suggests that the advertising campaign promoted colonization of India as a means to bring wealth to anyone involved, leading citizens to volunteer for expeditions. However, the Virginia Company focused primarily on colonization of Virginia, not India.
The fourth statement, which describes how colonization of the New World would help England expand its empire, encouraging citizens to invest in the company, is the most accurate description. The Virginia Company indeed emphasized the potential economic benefits of colonization and encouraged citizens to invest in the company based on the prospects of expanding England's empire.
Therefore, the correct answer is: It described how colonization of the New World would help England expand its empire, encouraging citizens to invest in the company.
