The Spanish colonized areas in Florida and New Mexico in the 16th-17th centuries, developing a military and missionary strategy while enslaving Native labor. They forced Spanish customs and religion onto Natives. The French occupied small settlements amid vast claimed territories in the Great Lakes region, interacting and living with Algonquian and Iroquois peoples while introducing disease. The Dutch established trade relations in order to acquire wealth from the Algonquin peoples, leading to conflicts over seized lands. The English founded outposts for trade and shipping before settlers arrived to farm smaller plots of divided lands in the Chesapeake and New England, where climate supported agriculture as an economic means unlike the lack of resources in other colonies.
