History

The middle colonies were called the breadbasket colonies, because there was an abundance of arable land and fertile soil. There were also natural harbors around the middle colonies, which made it easy for them to trade with other colonies, and because of large numbers of immigrants coming from continental Europe which made the breadbasket colonies ethnically and religiously diverse, compared to the other sets of colonies.

torisob [31]

In the North cold made farming difficult while in the South climate was ideal for agriculture.

Immigration created a huge population increase in the North while 1/3 of the southerners were slaves. Cities in the north developed as centers of trade whereas most southerners lived on farms.

The economy in the North was based on manufacturing differing from the agricultural South.

But the most significant development was transportation. Canals had been built and most of the railroads were in the North. However, the south still depended on steamships.
