What are the characteristics of the Middle Colonies?

History
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]3 years ago
4 0
What / or who are they: Delaware, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey

Why middle: These were the 4 of the 13 original colonies that were between the northern and southern colonies.

Religion: this is the sentence you really like to write. There were all sorts of religions present, but not one of them could dominate. These 4 colonies had Lutherans, Mennonites, Calvinists (mostly Dutch), and Presbyterians. 

Commerce: mostly agriculture at the time, but not restricted to 1 crop as the south was. Had good ports and growing cities (New York, Philadelphia).  I like to include the well respected intellectual hotbed of people there like Ben Franklin.

Why did the mormons immigrate to utah?
ryzh [129]
The Mormon pioneers were members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), also known as Latter-day Saints, who migrated across the United States from the Midwest to the Salt Lake Valley in what is today the U.S. state of Utah. At the time of the cease fire and planning of the exodus in 1846, the territory was owned by the Republic of Mexico, which soon after went to war with the United States over the annexation of Texas. Salt Lake Valley became American territory as a result of this war. The journey was taken by about 70,000 people beginning with advanced parties sent out by church fathers in March 1846 after the assassination of Mormon prophet Joseph Smith made it clear the faith could not remain in Nauvoo, Illinois—which the church had recently purchased, improved, renamed and developed because of the Missouri Mormon War setting off the Illinois Mormon War. The well organized wagon train migration began in earnest in April 1847, and the period (including the flight from Missouri in 1838 to Nauvoo) known as the Mormon Exodus is, by convention among social scientists, traditionally assumed to have ended with the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad in 1869. Not everyone could afford to transport a family by railroad, and the transcontinental railroad network only serviced limited main routes, so Wagon train migrations to the far west continued sporadically until the 20th century,

Why do men have the need to kill, the need for power, and the love of hatred?
nikklg [1K]
Well, everybody has their own reasons for literally everything. It all depends on what's happened in the person's life. If someone loses someone, or get's hurt, or something they take out their pain on other people, leading them to kill people. 

All of this goes under sociology, behavioral science, criminology, victimology, and psychology.


As for hatred, I don't know that people "love" it. People just have a need to be defiant and rebellious. 


As for power, people are sometimes control freaks. They need to be in control of all situations. This has to do with how they were treated as a child. If they were beaten, or bullied, they'd like to rise up and become the beater or the bully.



Hope that helps!
