Question

How were the

Answer 1

New England colonies were different because they had very little religious tolerance for others, but the middle colonies were founded on the idea of religious tolerance for all. They settlers were similar because both groups came to the new world because of persecution from their pervious homes. The settlers in New England faced persecution for their Puritan beliefs and the Middle Colonies settlers were persecuted for being Quakers.

Answer 2

Answer:

These colonies were also different. There was more religious freedom in the Middle colonies than in the New England colonies. This was especially true in Pennsylvania. The Middle colonies had some slaves while the New England colonies had very few slaves.  This is true because there was more large scale farming in the southern part of the Middle colonies where the soil was more fertile and the climate more suited for farming.  Thus, another difference is the kind of farming done.  In the New England colonies, subsistence farming was practiced. These farmers grew enough for their family, but didn’t have too much left to sell to other people. In the Middle colonies, farmers grew crops for sale.  The main cash crop was wheat.
