The Southern Economy 1. Relied on: agriculture and raw materials 2.Exported: timber (for building ships) and deerskins 3.Industries: Naval Stores (pitch, turpentine and tar) 4.Small farms and Large plantations sparked this agricultural economy 5.Economy based on: Cash Crops; crops grown mainly to be sold for profits (tobacco, rice and indigo)

Southern Plantations and Slavery 1. Plantations main work source: Slaves 2. Slaves worked for life (unless they were able to earn enough money- very hard with harsh laws0 Slave Codes 1.Laws to control slaves 2.Most common on the biggest plantations (South Carolina) 3.Laws prevented slaves from running away (would be killed if found)

The New England Economy Relied on: Cash Crops (poor growing conditions) ** no need to have large farms therefore slavery not as big here (they still had them though) Most families farmed their own areas Industries: Fishing and shipbuilding (shipyards)- high quality ships- made them lots of $$$$$$ Export: Dried Fish, pickled beef and pork, furs Economy: demanded lots of skilled craftspeople

The Middle Colonies ** Kind of a combo of Southern and New England Colonies Relied On: commerce and agriculture Economy based on: Staple Crops ( crops that are continuously in demand (wheat, barley and oats) Export: Staple Crops, livestock Slaves: had more of role here then The New England Indentured Servants: biggest fill of their labor needs

Women and the Economy Contributed by: – running farms and businesses –Practiced medicine (more likely then men) A married women could not work outside the home without her husband’s permission!!! A husband also had the right to keep the women’s wages!!!!

4.3 The Great Awakening What: An unorganized but widespread movement of evangelical Christian sermons and church meetings Why: Fear that many colonist and their dedication to their religion was declining Jonathan Edwards: one of the most important leaders of the Great Awakening George Whitefield- came to American to begin a series of Revivals (sermons)- drew thousands and thousands of supporters Result: Several thousands and colonist renewed their faith in Christianity

Old Lights vs. New lights Old lights- traditionalists New lights- followers of the great awakening Spread all through the Frontier Attracted many people of different classes and races People were seeking spiritual renewal (acceptance and equality)
