The colonial states in America exhibited distinct sectional differences shaped by geography, economy, and culture. New England, characterized by a harsh climate and rocky soil, focused on trade, fishing, and small-scale farming, fostering a community-oriented society with strong Puritan religious influences. The Middle States, with their fertile land and diverse populations, thrived on agriculture and commerce, leading to a more tolerant and pluralistic society. In contrast, the Southern States relied heavily on plantation agriculture, utilizing enslaved labor for cash crops like tobacco and cotton, which created a hierarchical social structure and distinct cultural practices.
