The story behind my topic

The Encounters and Foundations Era was an important part of American history. The Era was in-between the 16th and 19th centuries, where every little thing had a major impact on today's lifestyle. One thing I discovered was that literature and history go hand and hand. So, "How did the history of the era affect it's .literature,or vice versatile" is a very interesting question to me. It's an awesome question that deserves to be answered!
