The architecture style is different. romanesque churches came first. they were bulky, strong and had really thick walls. their windows were regular roman arched shapes. they usually have lower ceilings and not much light inside.
Gothic cathedrals came later. they have pointed arches, lots of tall windows for light stained glass and flying buttresses to help support the higher and thinner walls.
this may help you and i hope it helped thanks
The new England colonies practiced mainly subsistence farming, middle -> wheat, and south -> plantation farming with huge production. Many people fled to new england for religious freedom but when they got there each colony mainly had their own strict religious beliefs, for example Massachusetts bay.
