The Chesapeake and New England regions were settled by people of English descent, but by 1700, they had become two distinctly different societies. They had evolved so differently, mainly because of the way that the settlers followed their religion, their way of conducting politics and demographics in the colonies. Even though the settlers came from the same homeland: England, each group had its own reasons for coming to the New World and different ideas planned for the colonies.…
1. Thesis: The Chesapeake and New England communities both originated from English backgrounds. Their communities had different beliefs and settled in the new world for other reasons. Their differences consisted of social, economic, and political beliefs.…
During the early 1700’s, both New England and Chesapeake regions were settled largely by the people of the English origin. The settlers of the two colonies were foreigners to the land who established two exceptional, but contrary societies due to the diversity of English citizens. Although both colonies were from the same English background they developed different distinctions from their political standards, religion, and social life.…
Since the early 17th century, the English migrated to America for a variety of reasons. The promise of treasure, religious tolerance, and plentiful lands, lured gold-seekers, Puritans, Protestants, unemployed farmers, indentured servants, and younger sons (who had fallen victim to laws of primogeniture), to the land mistakenly named the Indies. English migration to the Chesapeake region spread over nearly a century, whereas voyagers to New England arrived within a single decade. One would think that since the English settled both of these regions, both of their societies would develop quite similarly, but one could not be more wrong. The variations of the societies that developed in the Chesapeake region and the New England region occurred because the settlers had different motivations pertaining to their journeys, contrasting family ties, and diverse geological situations.…
The immigrants that settled the colonies of Chesapeake Bay and New England came to the New World for two different reasons. These differences were noticeable in social structure, economic outlook, and religious background. As the colonies were organized the differences were becoming more and more obvious and affected the way the communities prospered. These differences are evident from both written documents from the colonists and the historical knowledge of this particular period in time.…

From the introduction up to chapter 7 in the reading of “Cultures in Motion” by author Peter N. Stearns, does a profound job in doing what was expressed would be done within the first few pages of his book. The basis of focusing on many different cultures and the encompassing contact was very focused and cut down to a short straight to the point style but was given a wide range of a big picture of most of the cultures and their history. The way Peter splits chapters one through seven into two parts, the first being about early classical civilization explaining the cultures being born in Egypt and the Middle-East, the explanation of Buddhism, Jewish, and Christianity. The second being of postclassical cultural contacts; in which provides a view of a clear explanation of how everything was most likely formed and what became or has become of it.…

The Chesapeake Bay and New England colonies were both mainly settled by people of English decent during the early 1600s. Although each colony was founded by people of the same origin, by the 1700s, both regions had evolved into distinct societies based on hardships that they faced, the type of government they had, and the reason for settling the two regions. Each society was faced with numerous challenges when starting out in each colony including hunger, inability to work, and harsh environmental conditions. Although both regions were settled by the English, each colony had their own unique systems of government. Along with different challenges and governments, the motives for settling the two regions varied from becoming wealthy to having religious independence. The differences applied to each region was what shaped them into two unique societies.…
Many of the problems now and in time have been the product of someone stereotyping someone else for being “different” than they are. It can be based off the pigmentation of one’s skin, the religious differences between people, but more often than not, it is because of the class a person falls into economically. Class is a system that distinguishes people by the amount of money a person makes, or that is what class is supposed to be. We often see the upper-class portrayed as educated, clean, and powerful people as opposed to the lower-class who are seen as dirty, lazy, and powerless individuals. The way the media stereotypes the economic classes makes a class seem like a culture instead of an economic standing. In many cases, us individuals allow those stereotypes to become who we are.…
Culture region is a geographical area that encompasses a definite, specific culture or ethnic group. Norfolk Island lies in the Australian and Oceanic cultural region. Australia and Oceania have populations with diverse ancestries-indigenous, European, and Asian. Both physical geography and the migration patterns of people have shaped the region’s cultures.

In the article The Importance of 'Community ' in the Process of Immigrant Assimilation." International Migration Review by Joseph P. Fitzpatrick it explains how there is two steps to assimilating which are, cultural assimilation and social assimilation. It defines cultural assimilation as “adapting to values, norms, and expectations” (6). Immigrants change their personal beliefs and adapt to a new lifestyle. After culturally assimilating it says immigrants, socially assimilate, which is described as leaving a culture and being accepted into another culture. With this said, an immigrant first changes their values and then they are accepted into a group. There is controversial issues about whether if a immigrant changes their lifestyle, are they actually going to be accepted or not. It ties in community with assimilation explaining how community is a important factor of assimilating. A community surrounds a person with people they can relate to and provides security and confidence. Having a community gives a person the comfort feeling of assimilating with a group and not alone which makes the transition of assimilating easier for an immigrant.…
According to the Patient Safety Initiative (2011), this policy is “just” because it finds a middle ground between a punitive culture and a blame free culture. Furthermore, “it holds individuals accountable for their own performance… but does not expect individuals to assume accountability for system flaws over which they have no control” (p. 5).…
