When the British found that their colonies in North America were beginning to establish independent beliefs and moral standings, the British unjustly forced

    “in What Ways Did the Arrival of the Spanish, French, and British Change the Culture and Lifestyles of the Indian Cultures in North America, Central America, and South America?”

    The Colonies by 1763: A New Society?

Changes in religion, economics, politics and social structure illustrate this Americanization of the transplanted Europeans. By 1763, although some colonies still maintained established churches, other colonies had accomplished a virtual revolution for religious toleration and separation of church and state.
