Not well known is that slavery was prevalent in all of the colonies though the colonies we think of when the subject comes up are the Southern Colonies. In fact most of the slave ships were owned by merchants in New England and were a big part of the Triangle Trade at this time between New England, South Africa and the West Indies.
The Religion of the Colonies before the Great awakening was somewhat varied but mainly only in the Middle Colonies. The main religion in New England were the Puritans, in the Southern Colonies it was the Anglican and in the Middle Colonies it was the Anglican, Protestant, and the Quakers.
The Economy in New England centered around trade because farming was difficult with rocky soil. The main staples were Fishing, Timber, Rum, some slave trade, and shipbuilding over seen by wealthy merchants. In the Southern Colonies it was the staple crops of Rice, Tobacco, and Indigo (before the revolution) and Cotton (after). These crops were grown on large plantations owned by wealthy white males and worked by African slaves. In the middle colonies the economy was supported by both trade and farming with and emphasis on Wheat.
Finally the society of New England was based off of the Puritan religion but over all had a balanced class system mainly made up of a wealthy merchant class. The Middle Colonies again had a fairly balanced class system though instead of merchants it centered around farming communities. The Southern Colonies were ruled by Patriarchy. Patriarchy is basically ruled by the father of a household; woman, children, and his slaves all had to submit to him as the owner of them.
Keep in mind this is all before the revolution and I haven't even tried to discuss the Great Awakening of the time.
Farming was a big part of the 13 colonies.The fact that they[southern colonies] could grow so much more than them[new England colonies] made them grow soically apart.
Wich now the Southern colonie and the New England colonies are niow separated.
well the new England colonies did mostly trade, fishing, shipbuilding, and whaling because of the poor farming conditions.
the middle colonies produced mostly grain which gives them the nickname the "bread basket" colonies
the southern colonies had slaves grow cotton and tobacco which were ideal to farm in the southern colonies
New England had a short growing season and really, really REALLY rocky soil. It relied on its trees and commerce to get by.
The Middle Colonies had a longer growing season and better soil. They could grow things like wheat easily and could also trade.
The Southern Colonies had a long growing season and good soil. It could grow whatever it wanted and sell it too.
The regions developed differently for a variety of regions. Geography, politics, religion and economics, among other things, all influenced how the regions developed.
The backcountry is where they can develop small communities
Because United states back then was divided into north and south during the age of the industrialization. The northern believed in machines and technology while the southern believe in the agriculture and the land. That is why northern colonies more urban than southern colonies.
The climate found there, the type of farming in the region, and availability of water transport.
Well, the different landforms could cause the groups to live differently
I didn't want to read the entire first section of Ch. 4 in my book because it's pretty long, but my guess is that it's because the profit would eventually get to England(...?) and because England wanted the colonies to be less rebellious. Idk. Sorry. :/ I Googled this question for a reason. Hahaha.
If the slave did not do what they were told they would get HANGED!
they wanted it to be like that for families
i dont uunderstand your question

He helped to develop colonies for England in Northern America
The geography of the Southern Colonies included large forests and miles upon miles of fertile farmland. This allowed the colonists to engage in the timber trade and fur trade as well as develop large plantations. Since the western portion of each Southern Colony bordered the ocean, it made it easy for them to export lots of tobacco, cotton, furs, and timber to England.
Large scale farming developed in the southern colonies because they had slaves to work the plantations.
joint-stock companies were formed for coloniztion
worked and lived in larger groups than other southern colonies, and they had more isolation to the white planters.

Salutary neglect was a very "hands-off" approach to the colonies by England. It was a method intended to keep the colonies favorably obedient to England. In the American colonies it, instead, fostered self-control and self-governance which led to the Revolutionary War.
true
