Chesapeake and New England During the late 16th century and into the 17th century, Europeans colonized the newly discovered America. England sent out groups to the eastern coast of North America to two regions. These two regions were the Chesapeake and the New England areas. They, these regions, had many differences. These differences sprouted from the common factor – the reason why colonists came to the America. They were affected by these differences in many ways, politically socially economically. New England was north of the Chesapeake, and included Massachusetts Bay Colony, Plymouth, Rhode Island, Connecticut. The New Englanders were seeking freedoms of religion. Some Protestants wanted the separation from Catholicism they took Calvinism as their religion. The Separatists and prosecuted Catholics came to New England in hopes to find the religious freedom where. In fact, New England settlers reproduced much of England’s economy, with only minor variations. They did not invest largely in staple crops, instead, relied on artisan-industries like carpentry, shipbuilding, and printing. The differences were economical as it is seen before. But the Americans loaned some parts of English economy. Economy of new England was different from the economy of Chesapeake. Chesapeak’s economy was relied on tobacco, but in the new England they were too religious not economic. The differences between Chesapeake and new England were clearly seen. They were social and economical and political and also religous. Obviously we can see that the motives for coming to the America caused these two regions to be so very different.
