The Chesapeake region and Southern colony region, as well as North Carolina relied heavily on staple crops like tobacco, rice, etc.
The early colonial labor systems relied heavily on indentured servitude, which transitioned to chattel slavery as time passed. The slave codes gave way to the dehumanization of these slaves.
The triangle trade facilitated the exchange of goods and slaves along the middle passage. Mercantilism enforced the use of these passages and use of human labor
New England and the Puritans focuses on more small scale farming, while the middle colonies remained diverse in economy. The southern colony has planters that dominated the economy
The first great awakening, led by figures like Jonathan Edward’s and George Whitefield, sparked religious revival that emphasized individual faith. The enlightenment encouraged reason as opposed to this faith.
The King Philips war and Pueblo revolt reflected conflicts between colonists and Natives. Meanwhile, salutary neglect allowed colonial governments to grow relatively independent in order to respond to such conflicts.
