Sagot :
Benjamin Franklin believed a major reason for colonial population growth was government bounties for large families.
The population of the American colonies through the 18th century was primarily a mixture of immigrants from different countries in Europe and slaves from Africa. These populations continued to grow at a rapid rate throughout the 18th century primarily because of high birth rates and relatively low death rates. From 260 000 settlers in 1700 the colonial population grew eight times to 2 150 000 in 1770. (In comparison the French colonial population grew from 15 000 to 90 000 in 1775 i.e. just 4% of the English total.) In fact the English colonial population doubled almost every 25 years in the 1700s. Large families and more immigrants came to the colonies. Many Europeans were escaping from the wars in Europe. Large families and more immigrants came to the colonies.
