Letter To The New England Colony Report
October 19, 1782

Dear Dominic,

I have just arrived in Massachusetts which is apart of the New England colony. It is too cold to farm the whole year so I am have to make just enough crop to feed myself and hopefully there is some left to sell. Down here, there is no religious freedom and I am forced into the Puritan religion. The land down here has many hills and rocky soil.

    Impact on Development: New England and Middle Colonies

    New England and Middle Colonies developed differently because the Anglican Church was persecuting Protestants and Catholics. Therefore these groups settled in New England and not Virginia/Middle Colonies. This impacted political development because the Middle Colonies were for profit, and as a result they developed different politically.…

    The Pilgrims: The New England Colonists

    The New England Colonists highly valued religion and rules. Some well known colonists are the Pilgrims. The Pilgrims came to the New England Colonies for freedom of religion. They believed that the Church of England had gone to far beyond Christ’s teachings. There way of dealing with serious crimes was execution. The lesser crimes were handled with fines. There was one law on guns, if you did not bring a loaded gun to church you were fined 12 shillings. The church building itself had no significance to the Pilgrims, and was usually called simply the "meetingplace" or "meetinghouse". The meetinghouse was kept drab, and had no religious icons. The pastor was not essential to the church. Another well known group of colonists are the Puritans.…

    New England Colonies Dbq Analysis

    In the colonial United States up to seventeen hundred, most of the settlers inhabiting the land happened to be of English origin. Although, they came from the same whereabouts, the two poles of the colonies, north and south, developed two distinct societies. For example, in the New England area the settlers developed an egalitarian, unified, and organized atmosphere, while in the Chesapeake region residents created an aristocratic, unloyal, and scattered environment. But, if they are of the same origin, how did they develop such divergent societies? This difference was a result of opposite immigration and settlement patterns, and motives.…

    Compare And Contrast New England Colonies

    The New England colonies and the Southern colonies are slightly similar in some aspects, but drastically different in most. For example the new england colonies were strictly puritan and they did not tolerate any other religion but the southern colonies were not dominated by a single religion which gave way to more liberal attitudes and some religious freedom. The economy of New England was powered mostly the manufacturing in factories, whereas the Southern colonies’ economies were more agriculturally based. The social structures were different, because the New England colonies didn’t believe in slavery, so the social ladders were not the same. Religious tolerance was another major difference in these two regions. Overall the New England and Southern colonies are slightly similar, but their differences set them apart from each other.`…

    The People of New England and the Chesapeake Colonies

    Throughout history, many people from the same country have immigrated to different lands where their new lifestyles had very little in common. This was obvious in the settlement of the New England and Chesapeake colonies before 1700 which caused the development of dissimilar societies. The people of New England and the Chesapeake colonies formed different governments upon arrival to North America. They had different motives and incentives for immigrating to America. The composition of the colonists of New England and the Chesapeake area were nothing like one another during the settlement of the colonies.…

    You have caused us all pain and suffering. Your ignorance and inequality has greatly affected our lives. The horrible acts you put on us gave us reason to be infuriated. We have decided that there is only one solution. We, the colonists, will declare independence and break away from the ever vicious hold of Britain.…

    New England and Chesapeake Colonies

    The New England and Chesapeake colonies were both settled by English colonists. Most colonists moving from Great Britain to New England were families searching for religious salvation, rather than mostly the single men that traveled to the Chesapeake area in search of wealth. The immigrants of the Chesapeake area were greeted with a climate and soil that were perfect for cultivating tobacco, cotton, indigo, and rice. Those settling in New England could not rely on farming to support themselves because of the rocky soil in the north. While the majority of the Chesapeake colonists were not as cohesive due to the great distance from farms to these towns, New England had close-knit church events, meetings, and schools. Although, the New England and Chesapeake colonies were both settled by people at English origin, by 1700 the regions had evolved into two distinct societies because of motives, environment, and towns/communities.…

    Personal Narrative: Life During The Revolutionary War

    The soil, however is not fertile at all. The garden only produces enough food for our small family of four so trade is imperative. The church here is only of the Puritan faith, any other religion is considered obsolete. As I’m sure you have heard, Britain has placed taxes on the colonists in order to pay for the French and Indian War. The Tea Act was passed on December 16 and on that night colonists dressed as Native Americans boarded English ships and dumped all of the taxed tea into Boston Harbor.…

    Victorian England Research Paper

    Education in Victorian England was different from today's schooling in many aspects. The malicious treatment of students at boarding schools frequently included being beaten and almost starved. Some children died as a consequence of the harsh way of life. Officials at these schools commonly censored mail and did not let pupils take vacations home, so parents had little to no knowledge of these problems. However, many children still attended these schools, because public education was more expensive. The poor turned to lives of crime because they lacked educaiton, and therefore could not make much money.…
