History

Answer: The New England colonies

Explanation:

The New England colonies often had thin, stony soil, relatively few flat areas and long winters, making agriculture-based survival difficult. Turning to other activities, New Englanders controlled the power of water and set up grain mills and sawmills. Good quality wood was a stimulus for boat building. The excellence of the ports favored trade and the sea became a source of great wealth. The vast majority of early New England settlers lived in villages and towns around the ports, so many became involved in some kind of commerce or business.

The shipbuilding industry was extremely important, especially to the New England Colonies in Colonial Times. The first ships were built for fishing, but trade was also conducted by water, which eventually led to the real demand in shipbuilding. Shipyards rose up all along the coast of New England.
