<explanation pointer-to-explained="q2b">
<p>Established by the Virginia Company of London, Jamestown
was the first permanent English settlement in the New World;
it flourished from 1607 to 1699.  Although the Roanoke colony
was founded earlier (in 1587), that colony failed; upon returning
from a trip to England for supplies, its Governor found the
settlement abandoned.  Although one of the earliest New England
colonies, Plymouth (in modern Massachusetts) was not founded
by the Pilgrims until 1620.</p>
