Presentation transcript:

13 English Colonies in America What is a colony? A group of people from the same country who live in another place to make the “Mother Country” better. The English Colonies settled on the Eastern coast of North America, set between the Atlantic Ocean and the Appalachian Mountains

Regional Differences The 13 Colonies are divided into 3 sections/regions due to differences in geography, weather or climatic conditions, industry, and the manner of living of the people.

13 Colonies

New England Colonies (4) Massachusetts- Plymouth New Hampshire Rhode Island Connecticut

New England Colonies- Key Aspects Rocky soil due to glacial effects of earlier ice ages. Land is not very fertile. Wet and cold climate with a short growing season. Fast flowing rivers due to heavy rains and snow melt. Several good natural harbors areas.

New England Colonies- Key Aspects Small self-sufficient farms due to the poor farm conditions. Lived off the sea and land. Fishing, shipbuilding, and logging became a major part of the region. Industrial area, as they will use the rivers to run the machines in the factories. Independent minded people. Strong feelings of self- government. Deeply religious area. Laws mandated citizens to attend church on Sunday’s. Small towns. Community based living (Town Squares- church, city hall, school).

New England

Middle Colonies (4) New York Pennsylvania Delaware New Jersey

Combination of manufacturing and farming. The “Bread Colonies”. Production of wheat, rye, barley, corn and fruit. The main manufacturing area: cloth, woolens, flour, guns, wagons, tools, and various iron products. Some of the largest cities: New York, Philadelphia

Middle Colonies- Key Aspects

Southern Colonies (5) Virginia- Jamestown Maryland North Carolina South Carolina Georgia

Southern Colonies- Key Aspects Land and the climate are great for farming. The best agricultural area of the 3 regions. Produced tobacco, indigo (a blue dye), rice. Cash crops- mostly sold to England. Mostly small farms, but some large scale plantations. Spread out communities. Slave labor. Gently, slow flowing rivers used to transport goods. Few large cities.
