Who Would You Have Been in Colonial America?

Fleeing persecution from the autocratic regimes of old Europe, you have come to the New World to seek freedom and to build a new country based on your biblical ideals. You are an idealist with a strong belief in right and wrong, and you expect others to uphold and live by the strict moral code you adhere to. You are occasionally stubborn and see your way as the only way, and you may harshly judge others who do not agree with you. However, every action you take is from a belief in ultimate good, and you would never intentionally do anything to harm another human being or animal.

Fighting for freedom from the shackles of British rule, you are instrumental in planting the seeds of a revolution that will create the greatest country the world has ever known. So rise up and fight the power! You see the possibility of change all around you, have the confidence to lead and the passion and the charisma to stir up the crowds, and are not afraid to use whatever means are necessary in your quest for justice.

You came to the New World to seek nothing but a plot of land and are content to live a quiet life with your family around you. To you, success is a good harvest and happiness is seeing the land around you tamed and fertile with crops. You are a traditionalist who values routine and stability, however you also have an adventurer's soul that led you to leave your birth country and seek your fortune in new and untried territories.

You are a thrill-seeker with a thirst for adventure. Your boldness takes you forward into uncharted territory, and your quick-wits help you overcome any problems you encounter while seeking the gold at the end of your rainbow. However, we all know the rainbow moves ever further away, so your goals may seem ever more unattainable the closer you get. Do not settle for the lesser land or allow the fear of unseen danger to distract you away from your path. Keep straight on the trail, and one day you'll reach the golden sands of the Pacific!

As one born on the soil of the mighty continent of America, you hold the distinction of being a true child of the New World. Deeply in tune with your environment, your ability to sense the prevailing atmosphere in any situation is sometimes uncanny. You are both an idealist and a pragmatist; you are not afraid to reach for your dreams, but you also understand what is within the realms of reality.

External forces outside your control have you shackled to a life you did not choose, but your spirit remains wild and free. Whatever your circumstances you are a survivor, and like a tree, you bend with the wind while remaining strong through the storm. You may bow your head to those who seek to dominate you, but you know in your heart that you hold the hidden power and the fire to rise up and overcome.
