New England Colonies

In the New England Colonies, the Puritans who were mainly from England, Ireland, and Scotland, settled in other to escape religious persecution.

Middle Colonies

The middle colonies were populated by people of all sorts of Christian denominations such as the Quakers, the Mennonites, the Lutherans and even the Dutch Calvinists.

With their rivers for easy transport and farms producing lots of tradable produce, the Middle Colonies became centres of trade especially the colonies of New York and New Jersey.

Southern Colonies

The House of Burgesses was the first democratically legislative house in the United states and they met in the colony of Virginia which was in the Southern Colonies.
