Boston

Boston is located in the eastern part of the state on Boston Harbor, an inlet of Massachusetts Bay, at the mouth of the Charles River. Boston was one of the earliest major U.S. cities to be A22settledby Europeans in 1625 and the largest city in the British American colonies. The American Revolution began in the Boston area. When the Puritans gained political A23 powerin England in the mid-17th century, trade and migration between Boston and London flourished. In the 1640s, Boston ships carried dried cod to A24 feed the African slaves who worked on the plantations in the British West Indies. By the 1670s, Boston dominated the West Indian shipping business. By 1700, it was the third busiest port of the British Empire and the leading seaport for trade with the British American colonies. Boston had three triangular foreign trade routes that were important A25 sources of wealth. The first triangular route took rum from Massachusetts to trade for slaves on the west A26 coastof Africa, who were carried to the West Indies and A27 exchanged for sugar and molasses, which went back to the colony to be made into rum. The second route took fish, lumber, and horses to the West Indies for sugar. Then it was taken to England to be traded for manufactured goods which were sold in the colonies. The third route took fish, food, timber, and fur to southern Europe to be traded for wine, spices, silk, and fruit, which was traded to England for manufactured goods for the colonies. By the end of the 17th century Boston's fleet of ships was A28 exceeded in the British Empire only by those of London and Bristol.
