Compare and contrast the middle colonies and southern colonies during the restoration era.

boyakko [2]

Both the Southern and Middle Colonies had fertile farmlands, but only the Middle Colonies was able to provide trading opportunities, thanks to their coastal lowland and bay-provided harbors. Southern Colonies highly contributed to the rise of cash crops such as rice, tobacco, and indigo. Slaves cultivate huge tracts of land and plantations owned by wealthy aristocrats and large landowners. On the other hand, Middle Colonies were more suitable for growing grain and livestock, with its environment ideal for small to large farms. More diverse workforce also exists in the Middle Colonies, consisting of farmers, fisherman, and merchants. Another notable contrast between the two colonies is that, for the people of the South, life developed as rough and rural while people of the Middle countries are deeply connected to the Church and village community.

What aspects of romanesque architecture caused early scholars to call it roman-like?

Novosadov [1.4K]

Romanesque architecture is obsessed in semi-circular arches, massive walls, barrel wall roofs (barrel vault) and decorative arcades (succession or arches on a walkway). It is markedly different from Gothic architecture, which is characterized by use of pointed arches. If you are thinking about fairy-tale castles and stuff, you are probably looking at some elements of that architecture. Romanesque architecture flourished approximately 6th to 11th centuries, and it is widely adopted by castles, monasteries, and churches. It got its name probably because of the arches, which is a feature typical in Ancient Roman architecture. Actually, the word Romanesque was coined in the 18th century.
