In the 1700’s The South and the North colonies were similar but also different. The South colonies were Agricultural because of all the crops they planted. The North was Commercial because they were right next to the ocean and could send ships to England and other countries. The south helped with the Cash Crop and the North help move the cash crop across the ocean. In this essay I’ll be talking about how different and similar the North and South colonies are.
The North produced several crops then the south because of the cold winters and rocky soil restricted New Englanders to small farms. The North attracted more immigrants than the South and so the North had to find a way to stay along with their new neighbors. The Salem trials in 1692 caused many people to question the existence of witch-craft. The new Massachusetts charter of 1691 forced puritan church members to vote. The North colonies were definitely more advanced than the South colonies.
Lots of Germans settled in the South colonies in search of a new start. Southern colonies had indentured servants and they were mostly young men trading life in prison to work in North America. The South started to use African slaves because they found out enslaving Native Americans was difficult. The African slaves resisted there position as being slaves by doing a couple of things, one of them like faking sick to get out of work. The South has it ways to be different from the North and the slaves are a big difference.
The influx of immigrants helped create a diverse population in both the Northern and Southern colonies. The women in both colonies shared a trait as being second-class citizens. Both North and South colonies attracted immigrants and they both had slaves. Again women had it rough in both Northern and Southern colonies and another example to add is that women basically had no rights. The Northern and Southern
