When I look at these hats made from beaver pelts, I can see that many different types

of people in English society — the military, the church, and the ordinary male citizen

— wore this fur. We know that by the seventeenth century, the British and the French

had established colonies in North America. These settlements included forts, churches,

and businesses, which of course required military, clergy, and ordinary male citizens.

Fur became not just a luxury item, but a necessity of human life in cold places.

# data[].attributes.body
The illegal trade also means that the mining and selling of silver was not

regulated. Eventually, this led to the devaluing of silver all over the world (if there’s too
