from The Political History of the United States
During the settlers second year in Plymouth we see them work to build off the diplomatic success that we saw a week ago.

This week we are going to watch how the Pilgrims navigate through a political quagmire that they are unfortunately unprepared for. At the same time, the settlers are forced to address an angry company back in England that is anxious to make a profit. All of this is going to combine to force the pilgrim led ambush at Wessagussett.Join us on social media!
