Southern colonies were largely agrarian and void of cultural diversity due to the presence of slaves - it discouraged immigrants. The New England colonies were originally a religious monopoly that spurred desenters and new colony (Rhode Island). The lack of arable soil and presence of narrow, fast-moving rivers led growth of factories using hydroelectricity. The middle colonies were the most ethnically diverse of the bunch, due mainly to their original settlers: New York (by the Dutch), Delaware (Swedish colony), Maryland (haven for Catholics) and Pennsylvania (German settlers - Pennsylvania "dutch" is a bastardization of the German word for "German" - "Deutsch").
