Is there a man who's a brave soldier, relentless explorer, fair governor, Admiral and author? Yes. There is. #itsme

(cont.1) The Native Americans were dying off from disease like god said they should. My life will never be the same, and I look forward to returning to Virginia someday soon. (fin).

(cont.) America. The Indians were savages, and a huge problem to us, but luckily we managed to overcome that, and continued to exist despite their evil intentions to destroy us off the face of this planet. We killed many of them, and I'm sure Pocahontas will remember me. (cont.1)

Fall 1609: So, my dear followers. I am afraid I have some bad news. Yesterday, I was severly injured and am forced to return back home to England. It's been hell of a ride, and I enjoyed every bit of it. We accomplished our goal of establishing the first permanent colony(cont.)

August 1609: 400 new settlers arrived! Preparing for war against the Indians rn! Got Gunpowder as well! Gonna be #lit! Literally!

[Ian W @188JSmith]

Damn Indians. Ever since, you know, I tried to kill their chief, they seem to be pretty angry. Taking us down one by one. Think I'm gonna re-engage them when we get reinforcements of more settlers. They're taking us down like flies. We can't gather enough materials #rip #dead

Yo guys, welcome to #MTVCribs, today you're going to see a bit of my crib. Here we have Jamestown, and you can see the townsfolk working hard. You also got a pic of todays food. #richlife #WeActuallyHaveFoodNow

February 1609: Chief Powhatan overstepped. Planning to kill me? How low do you have to be to plot someone's death! If he continues to act in this brute way, we will have no other choice than to engage militarily!

[Ian W @188JSmith]

January 1609: So, very unproductive Summit. We both wanted to kill each other, and both of us failed. So that's boring. I was hoping for a little Michael Bay murder montage. On my way back to Jamestown now.

[Ian W @188JSmith]

January 1609: So we were on our way to the summit, and Pocahontas (that girl that saved me) comes running over, warning me that Chief Powhatan is planning my death! He's the one who's supposed to die!

[Ian W @188JSmith]

January 1609: Preparing (to kill the Chief) for the Werowocomoco. Gonna have a feast before we go. Unfortunately, we didn't ship cattle from England. However, these birds can be pretty tasty! If we don't manage to hunt one down, the Indians found ways to domesticate them!

[Ian W @188JSmith]

#SecretPost January 1609: Planning Chief Powhatan's death (don't tell him). Meanwhile, I'm conducting normal, civil conversations with him via foot messenger. He'll never know!

[Ian W @188JSmith]

Late 1608-January 1609: As it turns out, good ol' buddy Chief Powhatan doesn't like when I plunder his villages. Historical summit planned for later this January 1609, and will take place in Werowocomoco, the Powhatan capital. #HistoricalSummit #MJGA #MakeJamestownGreatAgain

[Ian W @188JSmith]

Late 1608: So got bored of just living with the Indians. They're animals! So I thought, either, they give us the villages, and let us 'help them' rebuild them to some proper standards, or we take the food, and destroy the village. #democracy #fair

[Ian W @188JSmith]

Food shortages! Gonna go send some settlers to live with the Indians! Let's be honest, they won't hurt us! #ImSure they're terrified of us and our weapons! #freefood

[Ian W @188JSmith]

#NEWTRADEDEALS! Thanks to the great leadership of yours truly, the colony of Jamestown is finally making a profit! Products such as pitch, tar, and soap ash are being exported back to England. #MJGA #TradeDeals Never before have we seen anything like this! Only under Cpt. Smith!

[Ian W @188JSmith]

Some changes under the Smith Administration: We have repaired the fort! Thanks to help from the Indians, we managed to plant some crops! Making historical trade deals! We now have a well! We've cut trees into clapboards! Historic changes in Jamestown! #MJGA

[Ian W @188JSmith]

Good news! Under my new policy, of "he that will not work shall not eat", the death toll has dropped dramatically. #MakeJamesTownGreatAgain #MJGA

[Ian W @188JSmith]

(cont. 2) You must obey this now for a law, that he that will not work shall not eat (except by sickness he be disabled). For the labors of thirty or forty honest and industrious men shall not be consumed to maintain a hundred and fifty idle loiterers." (fin)

[Ian W @188JSmith]

(cont.) And think not that either my pains nor the adventurers' purses will ever maintain you in idleness and sloth...
...the greater part must be more industrious, or starve... (cont. 2.)
