The beginning of economics in America can be traced back to the settlement of Jamestown. The colonists discovered that growing and selling tobacco was a lucrative, profitable business.Picture of the Settlement of Jamestown: https://www.nps.gov/jame/learn/historyculture/a-short-history-of-jamestown.htm
