    It consisted of British people who were uninterested in spreading their religion or language.

    Explanation:

    The location on the island of Jamestown was chosen mainly because it offered a favorable strategic defensive position against the other European forces. Another reason was because it was not inhabited by local Indians, and the British were not interested in spreading their religion and language. However, settlers soon discovered that the safe and secluded place was plagued by mosquitoes, and that river water unfit to drink, in addition to offering limited opportunities for hunting and little space for agriculture.
