The Massachusetts and Chesapeake colonies differed primarily in their motivations for settlement and social structures. Massachusetts, founded by Puritans, emphasized religious freedom and community, leading to a more homogeneous society with a focus on education and civic responsibility.

This resulted in a more diverse population and a social hierarchy based on wealth and land ownership in the Chesapeake region.
