  • In the history of colonialism, a plantation was a form of colonization where settlers would established a permanent or semi-permanent colonial settlements in a new region. The term first appeared in the 1580's in the English language to describe the process of colonization before being also used to refer to a colony by the 1610's. By the 1710's, the word was also being used to describe large farms where cash crop goods were produced, typically in tropical regions. The first plantations were established during the Edwardian conquest of Wales and the plantations of Ireland by the English Crown. In Wales, King Edward I of England began a policy of constructing a chain of fortifications and castles in North Wales to control the native Welsh population; the Welsh were only permitted to enter the fortifications and castles unarmed during the day and were forbidden from trading. In Ireland, during the Tudor and Stuart eras the English Crown initiated a large-scale colonization of Ireland, in particular the province of Ulster, with Protestant settlers from Great Britain. These plantations led to the demography of Ireland to become permanently altered, creating a new Protestant Ascendancy which would dominate Irish society for the next few centuries. In North America, during the period of European colonization in the early modern period, several plantations were established by English settlers, including in Virginia, Rhode Island, and elsewhere throughout the Thirteen Colonies. Other European colonial powers used the plantation method of colonization as well, though not to the extent of English settlers. (en)
