    The correct answer is: A. The British wanted to establish settlements along the coast of North America.

    The Virginia Company refers collectively to two English corporations incorporated under King King James I on April 10, 1606, the purpose of these companies was to establish settlements on the coast of North America. The companies were called "Virginia Company of London" (or London Company) and "Virginia Company of Plymouth" (or Plymouth Company); They operated with identical cards but with different territories. An overlapping territory area was created within which the two companies were not allowed to establish colonies within one hundred miles of each other.
