Site and Situation

1. The best site for the map of 1650 would be location C because it is located near the ocean which is good for fishing, a river which supplies fresh water and a possible food source, and near farmland which is good for growing crops which allows you to eat and make money. The ocean could cause problems because there could be possible sea attacks and farmland could be dangerous because is could attract unwanted others looking for farmland. The next best location would be E because it is located on a river which provides a food source and fresh water and very close to farmland which allows crops to be grown. Farmland could be dangerous because it could attract unwanted settlers who also want farmland. The next location would be B because it is on an ocean which is good for trade and a few miles from farmland. The negatives to this would be that farmland is not very close and since it is on the ocean it is easy to get attacked by incoming ships. The next location would be A because it is only near the ocean. The downside to being only near the ocean is there is no other source of food nearby. The worst location would be D because it is only on a river so no ships would be able to get to it for trading purposes. A good thing about only being on a river would mean that no big ships can attack you.

2. The location with the best situation is C because it is close to towns B and D which would allow lots of trading. This is also located near a river which could allow more trading with incoming settlers. The next best would be location B because it is close to location C which could lead to trading between the places. This is also located right on the ocean which leads to fishing. The next location would be D because it is close to location C and close to a river. Next the location would be A because it is not very close to other towns/locations but it is on the ocean. The worst location would be E because it is farthest from all other towns/locations.

3. I would recommend location C for development. I would recommend this location because it is the best based on its site and situation. It's site is the best because it is located near the ocean which is good for fishing, a river which supplies fresh water and a possible food source, and near farmland which is good for growing crops which allows you to eat and make money. It's situation is the best because it is close to towns B and D which would allow lots of trading. This is also located near a river which could allow more trading with incoming settlers.

4. The best location in terms of site and situation is location D. This is the best because in terms of site it is located on a freshwater source and surrounded by the ocean which can lead to fishing and large trade. In terms of situation it is also the best because it is right on the coast so it is easily accessible and it is near rivers and swamps which are freshwater sources. The next best would be location C. In terms of site it is the second best because it is on the ocean which allows trade and fishing. In terms of situation it is also the second best because it is on the coast and easily accessible. The next location would be location A. In terms of site it is located by freshwater sources like rivers and freshwater swamps. In terms of situation it is inland but surrounded by many rivers and swamps. The worst location would be B. In terms of site it is the worst because it is on a river but far from everything else. In terms of situation it is the worst because it is not near a coast and only one one river. Overall I would recommend location D because it is the best in terms of site and situation. his is the best because in terms of site it is located on a freshwater source and surrounded by the ocean which can lead to fishing and large trade. In terms of situation it is also the best because it is right on the coast so it is easily accessible and it is near rivers and swamps which are freshwater sources.

5. The best location in terms of site and situation is location C. This is the best in terms of site because it is close to the ocean which means fishing, farmland which is good for growing crops and near coal which is a great fuel. This is also the best in terms of situation because it is located in the middle of everything. The next best would be location D. This is the second best in terms of site because it is surrounded by coal and located on the ocean. Location D is also the second best in terms of situation because it is near the ocean, close to other towns and close to lots of coal. The next best in terms of site is location A because it is near coal and on the ocean. It is important to be located near coal now because train transportation has become a big thing and with no coal there will be no fuel for the trains. The next in terms of site would be location E because it is only close to the ocean. The worst location in terms of site would be location B. This is the worst because the only thing it is close to is the mountains. Then next best location in terms of situation is B because you do not have to cross water to get to towns. The next is terms of situation would be location A because it is not too far from coal and location C. The worst in terms of location would be location E. It is the worst because it is not near any other towns. I would recommend location C for settlement.

6. This does not change my evaluation because the railroads would make transportation faster but they would still have to walk some places and use a boat to get across the water. I would recommend location C still.
