The middle colonies were New Netherlands/New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware. The most populous was Pennsylvania settled during the 17th century. Settlers usually organized themselves in small farms spread throughout the colony with a few cities. <em>The Middle colonies had two major ports who were the main economic outposts, New York City and Philadelphia.</em>
James River colony also known as Jamestown was funded by joint-stock company in England. After settlers established an outpost, company's money was used to turn it into a permanent settlement. It was the first case like this.
I think the major reason why American colonists were different is because they came to a new land to flee persecution from their government. In what I have learned about societies forming colonies, many colonies were formed in other countries because a nation had control of that country. Take the Greek empire for example. The Greek citizens moved to counties that Greece had invaded and dwelt among those people and learned from them as well. In the Americas no one had really formed a colony or claimed the land for their country. Hopefully this helps.
