The top priority of New England colonists was Fishing.

The American colonies generally focused on harnessing the resources that their environment had. New England was next to rivers and the ocean so they generally focused on water based activities.

This was why they had interests in activities such as:

fishing

whaling

shipbuilding

They also had non-water based activities such as cattle rearing and logging. All these paled in comparison to the interest placed on fishing however as this was their largest economic activity.

In conclusion, fishing was the major economic activity of the New England colonies.

Which argument would have been used to justify increased government influence over American society during World War II?
zepelin [54]
The correct answer is <span>A. Government intervention is needed to guarantee that Americans will support the war. 

They faced similar problems like they did in world war one. The citizens thought a lot about being isolated and didn't want meddling in European affairs, while they also had many people of different ethnicity who felt differently about the war. The country needed to interfere to get support for participation in the war and they did get it eventually.</span>
