The role of religion also set the middle colonies apart. then again, which colonies are you referring to? I've seen the middle colonies list vary from one source to another. Virginia was normally assumed to be with the southern colonies. This would leave Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and sometimes, New York. Maryland was meant as a Catholic refuge in honor of Lord Baltimore, and you would have to understand the protestant vs catholic conflicts to really understand that significance. Pennsylvania, or Penn's woods, was started by William Penn, a Quaker, and the quakers were reviled in England. They refused to take up arms which made them just short of traitors in the eyes of the English Crown. As a result, Pennsylvania had the greatest religious freedom written into its founding documents by Penn.
The big difference is that the French were very kind to the Native Americans, while the Spanish were pretty harsh, forcing them into Christianity. I don't really know any similarities except maybe trading.
Hope this helps!
<span> The roman republic</span>
<span>The Romans established a form of government — a republic — that was copied by countries for centuries In fact, the government of the United States is based partly on Rome's model.</span>It all began when the Romans overthrew their Etruscan conquerors in 509 B.C.E. Centered north of Rome, the Etruscans had ruled over the Romans for hundreds of years.
Once free, the Romans established a republic, a government in which citizens elected representatives to rule on their behalf. A republic is quite different from a democracy, in which every citizen is expected to play an active role in governing the state.
I believe the answer is: Similarity
According to the gestalt principles, individuals that possess similar objects in term of shapes or colour would be automatically perceived as being in the same group. In public setting such as soccer match, this help the audience distinguish one team with another.
