North
America and Western Civilization
nWestern habits had been transplanted into a new setting.
nAmericans married earlier, had more children, and displayed an unusual concern for children, but they still reproduced the European-style family.
nWhen British colonists revolted against their rulers, they did so under Western-inspired political and economic ideology.
nOnce successful, they were the first to implement some of the principal concepts of that ideology.
