In ch. 14, how does Captain Smith’s leadership style either increase or decrease conflict for the group? What happen when Smith is not there to lead the colony anymore? 

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

Smith decreases conflict because he wants the best for everyone. He requires everyone to work and he sets around to making sure houses are built for all. When he is gone however, everyone doesn't pull their own weight and that hurts Jamestown.

How does Hunt respond to the conflict between the settlers, both in this moment and in the past, and what do his responses achieve?

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

Hunt means that he is not more powerful than the gentlemen. Although he has helped in the past and saved Captain Smith (and Samuel), he really cannot make any decisions for the group. He can influence people to make certain choices, but he has no vote.
