The Explanation of How English Colonies in the New World were Different from one another in Terms of the Goverment, Population, and Religion.

English Colonies in the New World were based off on government, population, and religion. It was not just that that made the colonies different from each other. The main source of the colonies was the people that followed theirs own beliefs, leaving them to seek protection from danger, and finding a new place to call their home it allowed the colonies to grow as it did, from the population to the crops. They didn't want to listen to the church because it was against what they believed in. Not allowed to believe in your beliefs is like having no rights at all. Moving into the colonies increased population, because more people came. Religions combined together after being tolerated, which caused the population and religion to increase. Government had came and took its toll depending on the people, personal beliefs, and political beliefs. Then the colonies were started for their own specific reasons.

Many of the colonies were started for religious or economic reasons. The colonies during that time had a different perspective on religion and rights. The colonies that were started specifically for religion was Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maryland, and New Haven. The Colonies were really strict when it came to religion. Many of the people in that time moved to the colonies because they hated being told of what to do by the church. Pennsylvania believed in the religion of Christianity. Quakers reside in this colony at the time.

Quakers believed that everyone was born in sin and that God was the only one who was perfect and that no other man was. Massachusetts was based off religion also and puritans were the settlers that remained there. The Puritan's religion was mainly about the bible and specifically what the bible says. Most of the puritans was punish for their own aspect on religion beliefs. Some of the inhabitants would leave for Plymouth. Those inhabitants were the pilgrims. They could not go south because of their beliefs. The pilgrims were seeking for a new life which is why they went to Plymouth. This did not conflicted with their beliefs at all. They met Native Americans and grew fond of their company. That moment was when the Native Americans helped with crops such as potatoes, rice and tobacco. Tobacco was really a prosperous crop at this time.

Maryland was another colony for economic reasons. A majority of Catholics lived in Maryland. Protestants came and took over the colony for the economic resources. Maryland was becoming wealthy for the tobacco crop . Christianity was allowed in Maryland just to keep protestants from over-populating catholics. Also, New Haven was founded for religious beliefs because protestants left Massachusetts because of the religion being too strict to be followed. Both North and South Carolina were started for economic reasons. They became very wealthy from the tobacco crops. The more slaves they had the more slave labor would have been done. Slave labor has made a remarkable amount of money since slaves were not that expensive at the time.

British King who founded a certain amount of people at a random extent gave them permission to colonizing land to make it prosperous. This was called Proprietary Colonies which were grants from the monarch where individuals were awarded huge amount of land. They would supervise and govern usually for favors in return. That is how the states were created. Which was how the south had its own penal colony. The penal colony had prisons which was probably used for indentured servitude. More land was another good way of making money besides crops and slaves. Government was another important issue of English Colonies in the New World. It is true that some colonies were democratic than others. There was three different type of British Colonies which were royal, proprietary, and self governing. Royal colonies were owned by kings. The royal colonies included Virginia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, North Carolina, South Carolina, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.

There was also self- governing colonies such as Rhode Island, and Connecticut.The king would grant a charter to a company.It would set up its own government depending on the crown.The
colonies population was increasing because some colonies tolerated other religions along to their colony to increase the population of people. The government was also different because some of the colonies would sign an agreement. For example, Massachusetts began with the Mayflower Compact which was an agreement to set up a theocracy. New York and New Jersey had a autocracy. Maryland and New Haven was a bicameral government. So as discussed in this essay The New World were very much different from one another in terms of population, government, and religion. It became prosperous and the government from at that time till this day has been slowly changing. Also the amount of citizens are over-populating each and everyday.
