Historians have argued that the settlement of the English colonies was undertaken in a haphazard manner, with little regard to the geography, climate, peoples, or practical demands of the New World. this is true, the basis for the setelers coming to America was haphazard. They came to America to seek refuge from the Huge restrictions of the British monarchy. When they got here they did nothing but Industrialize start wars and kill Indians. When they first came they brought with them deadly (to the Indians) diseases, and also contracted deadly diseases. That happened for a good decade. After that they continued to go about steeling the land form the Indians and turning it into their land. The made countless treaties and broke almost all of them. Then they fought for independence and won leaving everything in shambles. After that came the great industrialization which drained energy and lively hood out of the geography. Every thing down to the very reason they came was done in a very haphazard way.

Hope this helps, wrote it my self you can use it.

Historians have argued that the settlement of the English colonies was undertaken in a haphazard manner, with little regard to the geography, climate, peoples, or practical demands of the New World. I believe that this statement would be correct because the English came here in search for religious freedom from the laws of England and they made their way into America. From that moment on, they had made the best of the land that they were provided with, they had fights with the Indians that lived on the land, they had searched for treasure, they had gone through tormenting sicknesses and harsh winters, and in all of that craziness, they destroyed their land. The pilgrims had killed multiple Indians, made treaties with the Indians and then broke them, and they had also gone into war with Britain two times. This was a very haphazard way of living and their lives were very disorganized but even though it was very hard, they still persevered.
