Answer:

The colony of Virginia was the first to be founded in what is now the U.S. It was at first a very poor colony but when the settlers discovered that tobacco grew there, the colony quickly began to develop. The first African American slaves were taken to Virginia to grow tobacco.

Georgia was founded by settlers from Virginia and the Carolinas in the lowlands areas, were they established plantations that were worked by enslaved African Americans. In the northern parts of the state, Scotch-Irish immigrants settled, where they founded small, independent communities.

New England was founded by puritan separatists, or pilgrims. These were protestants of calvinist faith who had very strict social norms, but who also had great work ethic, and who were intolerant to slavery.
