While white colonists in New England came mostly from England, the Middle Colonies were more diverse. They attracted people from

many different European backgrounds: Dutch, Scot-Irish, Scandinavian, German and French. Colonists practiced many different religions. There were Quakers, Lutherans, Mennonites, Presbyterians and Jews. Some people who came to the Middle Colonies didn’t bring their families from Europe. They worked in the region’s factories and shipyards. There were also African slaves in the Middle colonies. They had jobs like laborer, servant, driver and sailor but were not paid.
Based on the passage, a “diverse” country would likely contain

A
people from many different backgrounds.

B
people from only one background.

C
factories and shipyards.

D
people who practice only one religion.

Answer:

The answer would be A. People from many different backgrounds.

Explanation:

A quote that would support this is: "They attracted people from many different European backgrounds: Dutch, Scot-Irish, Scandinavian, German and French."

B is incorrect because the quote from letter A proves it wrong.

C is incorrect because it isn't the focus of the text.

D is incorrect because according to the quote, "Colonists practiced many different religions," it is clear that there was also a variety of religions in the Middle Colonies (<em>not</em><em> </em><em>just</em><em> </em><em>one</em><em> </em><em>religion</em>).

How did the byzantine empire last so long?
egoroff_w [7]
There were many factors that allowed the Byzantine Empire to last a 1000 years after the end of the Roman Empire which include the fact that Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire, was protected with walls that lasted almost the entire 1000 years, making Constantinople, and the center of the empire's economy/culture impervious to invaders.

Why was the Louisana Purchase a bad thing ?
Ahat [919]
The Louisiana Purchase prompted countless conflict with the Native American population. Although it essentially doubled the size of the country, many feel as if the purchase from France brought more harm than good, thus being a bad thing. It also supported Napoleon which no Federalist wanted, and sparked massive uneasiness within the public.
