Why did dutch colonies in the americas fail to attract as many settlers as english colonies did? a. fewer people were dissatisfied with life in the netherlands than in england. b. the economy of the netherlands was much weaker than that of england. c. the dutch colonies were more difficult to reach by sea than the english colonies. d. the dutch colonies had fewer natural resources than the english colonies.

The correct answer is A. Fewer people were dissatisfied with life in the Netherlands than in England.

Dutch, French and British colonization occurred during the 1600's and while at the Netherlands people had good political and economic conditions plus religious freedom, in America those things were barely arising. Hence, people were hesitant about leaving their homeland for something entirely new, where the new settlers were mainly depending on fur trade to thrive whereas the British colonies in America offered the aforementioned mod cons and some others like land ownership.
