Answer:

New England: poor soil, rocky , clean air (10+ years of life)

Chesapeake: -soil used up from excess , tobacco farming , -"American Wilderness"

New England is geographically north of the Chesapeake and therefore came with cooler temperatures and cleaner water, slowing the spread of disease. The air quality was improved over that of Old England so much that moving to New England alone added ten years of life alone. Agriculture was not a viable industry due to both the cold and the rocky condition of the soil. In contrast to the local indian tribes who would take care of the forest to preserve it’s produce, New Englanders would clear out large patches of forest and use the land to their complete advantage.

In the Chesapeake region the land that they had was very important to them because it was such a farming industry. They needed the good soil that it had for all the tobacco farming; however, due to the intense farming this eventually destroyed the usable soil. The climate was a warm, swampy region that was great for year round harvests but also perfect to harvest disease such as malaria, dysentery, and typhoid.

People who moved to New England often moved in families as opposed to single men. Couples were wed early and had large amounts of children; the family was a stressed value in the New England lifestyle. New England was also said to have invented the concept of “grandparents.” People lived long enough here that grandparents could give guidance to both their children and grandchildren as opposed to the Chesapeake where people didn’t live long enough to be a grandparent. The low pre-marital pregnancy rates reflected on the stability of families, and any couple who would divorce would often be ordered to return to each other by the authorities. Towns which had more than fifty families would be required to set up a school house, which led to a high literacy rate.

The way of life for many people in the Chesapeake was brutal and for some hard to survive. When the first settlers arrived in the Chesapeake they were struck hard with disease and sickness which brought the life expectancy down by 10 to 15 years. Also farming was a huge part of the Chesapeake life. The demand for tobacco was so great that farmers were often forced to plant tobacco to sell before food to eat.

New England: pastures instead of farms , fishing & ship building , couldn't grow crops

Chesapeake: very happy tobacco industry  which brought in rare need

for slaves , In 1600s indentured servants  were being replaces by black

slaves

Why did Islam spread quickly following Mohammed‘s death
Rzqust [24]

Answer:  I found this article online so you probably have to tweak a few things to not get plagiarized by your teacher but here you go. I just put the useful info here but you could definitely cut some things out also. Websites url is : https://www.studentsofhistory.com/the-growth-pread-of-islam

The period following Muhammad’s death is known as the Rashidun Caliphate that lasted from 610-750. During this empire a Muslim administration and government was established and ruled the Middle East. The Caliphate was governed by The Righteous Caliphs, or spiritual leaders. By 644, these four leaders helped Islam spread and grow far and beyond the Middle East through conquests of major cities like Baghdad, Jerusalem, and Alexandria. North and Western parts of Africa were also conquered effectively taking control over much of the  Byzantine and Persian territory. The third Caliph Uthman created a version of the Quran that became standardized and widely used throughout the Islamic world in newly established schools that taught the Arabic language and Islamic studies. This was also a period in which hundreds of mosques were built throughout the empire.  

After the death of the last caliph in 661, the Umayyad Caliphate took control of the empire and ruled until 750. Historians regard this caliphate as the most powerful and expansive of the caliphs. The Umayyad Caliphate grew the Islamic Empire to its peak and expanded its control from the Middle East to parts of Asia, India, Northern Africa and parts of Europe.
