The dvd I made without a menu, only cutout the commercialblocks.
VLC mediaplayer wil play a split part, so you can use it for a sample.

A group of European settlers survive against all odds, claw themselves up and then turn against their colonial masters.

In 1607, a small group of English adventurers lands in Jamestown. 13 years later the Pilgrims settle in Plymouth, New England. These men and women are all driven by the promise of a new life, and all face huge dangers from disease, starvation and conflict. The two colonies are very different, yet in time both grow. One manâ??s entrepreneurial dream, tobacco and the first African Americans, turn the swamps of the South into a land of opportunity. The hardworking and resourceful Puritans forge the North into a trading powerhouse with shipbuilding at its core. Within 100 years, they have the highest standard of living in the world, a testament to the American spirit. Yet this success and wealth is challenged by British rule, who impose high taxation. The result is resistance and then eventually war.

This is the story of how, over seven generations, a group of European settlers survive against all odds, claw themselves up and then turn against their colonial masters. A diverse group of men, women and children are about to become truly American.
