What are some important things that we absolutely positively have to know about these colonies that could be on the ap exam?? What would be some key differences between these areas?</p>
New England - Longer lives, theocratic government, few slaves, dominated by a powerful merchant class.
Middle - Generally considered the most egalitarian, Quakers
Southern/Chesapeake - Intensive agriculture based on tobacco and other cash crops, indigo/rice in South Carolina and Georgia, dominated by men for the first twenty years, majority of the slaves lived here</p>
