The middles colonies had rich farmland and a moderate climate. This made it a more suitable place to grow grain and livestock than New England. Their environment was ideal for small to large farms. The coastal lowland and bays provided harbors, thus the middle colonies were able to provide trading opportunities where the three regions meet in market towns and cities. The Southern colonies had fertile farmlands which contributed to the rise of cash crops such as rice, tobacco, and indigo.
The New England colonies had very long and cold winter, making it hard for crops to be grown. The soil was pretty rocky and unfertile, so not too many plants were grown. Most farms in New England were small family farms. The middle colonies were called the breadbasket states, because of how much wheat and barley were grown. The southern colonies grew many things. The Southern Colonies were able to grow crops, fruits, and vegetables because of their fertile soil, and warm climate.
They must say that cash crops were grown in the middle colonies, that slaves were used on large plantations in the south, and that there was subsistence farming in New England.
Hey there!
The answer is A. That slavery was still allowed in a free nation.
One of the things the colonists fought for was freedom. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of the press along with other things.
However, for hundreds of thousands of slaves torn away from their homes, they had none of these freedoms. They were considered inferior and not people.
A paradox is a statement that seems absurd of self-contradictory, which this statement very much is. If the U.S. is a free nation, then why do hundreds of thousands of people living there have no freedoms, stolen from them by the very people who advocated for their own freedom?
Hope this helps!
