    The three regions of colonial development were very alike, however, very different at the same time. The New England colonies led very strict, Puritan lifestyles. New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island of the New England colonies were all founded due to religious conflict or the stretch for religious freedom. The Middle colonies were a mixture of religions such as Quakers, Catholics, and Jews. The Southern colonies had the most religious tolerance; this colonial region had about 10 differing religions all throughout the area. The New England colonies were not very successful with farming due to the dysfunctional terrain. Because of this they heavily relied on fishing, shipbuilding and textiles. The Middle colonies were dependent on agriculture and trade. The Southern colonies had slave trade, rice, and tobacco.…

    B. I think religion was a big part of the Maryland colony, because they made so many strict laws about it. I do not think it was an established religion, because they honored so many different religions (any religion that believes in Jesus Christ and God), that the tax money would have to go to different religious institutes. I infer the laws were mainly made to protect the Catholics and other religions that believe in Jesus Christ by persecuting/fining those who do not.…

    The three colonial regions which were controlled by the British were founded in the years of 1607 and 1732. The inhabitants of the regions were primarily men which is why society was not a big patriarchal society. Although, the colonies made up one huge colony not each region was alike, they were very distinct in religion, economic and political structures. These areas were divided into three regions which were New England, Middle and Southern colonies. Each region contained in own unique way of living, based on the culture of the people, as well as their topography. The dissimilarities amongst the regions were perhaps the very reason the colonies were able to persevere and eventually grow into a sovereign nation. Each colony came to the new continent for different reasons and created settlements with distinct economic, political,…
