A mercenary is someone hired to temporarily serve in a foreign army, they are normally specialized fighters with a specific skill, for example, archery. Unlike an official soldier of an army, a mercenary doesn't serve for political interests but for money or any other personal interest.

In the Roman Empire, mercenaries were non-Roman citizens hired to fortify the Empire's borders from any external attack or offensive. If they served for 25 years, they were given citizenship and rewarded with a plot of land to farm in their retirement.

The geographical differences between the New England, Middle, and Southern colonies?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

New England’s environment is ideal for water-powered machinery (mills), which allowed for finished products to be crafted, such as woven cloth and metal tools. The middles colonies had rich farmland and a moderate climate. This made it a more suitable place to grow grain and livestock than New England. Their environment was ideal for small to large farms. The coastal lowland and bays provided harbors, thus the middle colonies were able to provide trading opportunities where the three regions meet in market towns and cities. The Southern colonies had fertile farmlands which contributed to the rise of cash crops such as rice, tobacco, and indigo. Plantations developed as nearly subsistent communities. Slavery allowed wealthy aristocrats and large landowners to cultivate huge tracts of land. When strictly examining the geography of New England compared to the South, it is plausible that the vast space of the Southern region influenced the way it remained rural and still today holds that as a sense of pride or shared experience/identity.
