Jamestown
First permanent British settlement in North America, established by Captain John Smith in 1607. It was capital of Virginia from 1624–99.
In the nearby Jamestown Festival Park there is a replica of the original Fort James, and models of the ships (Discovery, Godspeed, and Constant) that carried the 105 pioneers.
The colony initiated the first representative government in North America; it also brought the first slaves and built the first Anglican church there. Subject to a high mortality rate, the population remained small, and the settlement burned 1608. It was about to be abandoned when Lord De La Warr arrived with new supplies.
