The Importance Of The Coastal Plain In Maryland

The Chesapeake region of the colonies included Maryland, the New Jerseys, Pennsylvania and Virginia. Chesapeake's population consisted mostly of black-slaves. Chesapeake had such a high demand for tobacco that plantation owners relied heavily on cheap labor slaves therfore trading slaves became a prominent industry. Religion was not that important to colonist because they were more focused on being successful economically. The Anglican Church was established after 1692 but many colonists (mostly slaves) did not participate in the Anglican Church. Chesapeake's economy revolved around the tobacco industry, which helped other future industries to evolve as well. Slave trade relied on the tobacco plantation owners as a business to sell slaves

Georgia's coastal plain is full of wonder. Environmental and economic are two different things. There are so many facts about them for Georgia. This two passages Environmental Facts About Georgia's Coastal Plain and Economic Facts About Georgia's Coastal Plain have similarities and differences.The similarities about these two passages is how both passages describe the coastal plain though they are different, but passage number one talks about how the environment is helpful and Paragraph number two talks about how the coastal plain is helpful. The similarity is that they both talk about how it can help. Passage one can help animals and more plants grow it gives air, food, and water for the one that live there. Passage two talks about how it

The Piedmont is the middle region it is between the Coastal Plain and the Mountain Region.

While both colonies were settled in Eastern America, the regional geography had a hand in influencing this expansion. New England was known for its harsh climate, forcing its inhabitants to endure brutal winters, and miserably hot summers. Because many European immigrants sought arable land, the unyielding soil of New England impeded the immigrants agriculturally and forced them to depend on livestock. They criticized the Indians for “wasting” the land-not using what little arable land they had to its full potential. As a result, the New Englanders used up as much land as they could to make sure “[t]hat everyone shall have a share of the meadow or planting ground…” (Doc D). They felt it was their duty to clear woodlands and establish a settlement. Additionally, they turned to the coastline and built harbors to fish rather than farm, unlike their Southern counterparts. Geography had a different impact on the people of the Chesapeake region. The people of Chesapeake capitalized on their good soil, and, unlike the New Englanders, they grew tobacco. Tobacco proved very profitable and

Both New England and Chesapeake suffered from religious tensions, both holding some settlers wishing to flee England in order to practice their religion without persecution and hoping for a better life across seas. In one instance, Chesapeake’s Maryland was founded by Lord Baltimore, a catholic Englishman hoping to create a safe haven for catholic settlers to worship. However Baltimore stayed in England and the majority of the settlers who came to the area were protestant. This caused strife over the only church eventually leading to the pro religion-tolerance governor to be thrown in jail and three catholic leaders to be hung.

The immigrants that settled the colonies of Chesapeake Bay and New England came to the New World for two different reasons. These differences were noticeable in social structure, economic outlook, and religious background. As the colonies were organized the differences were becoming more and more obvious and affected the way the communities prospered. These differences are evident from both written documents from the colonists and the historical knowledge of this particular period in time.

The New England colonies were formed by Protestants who were escaping England. They ‘planned’ their society. When they came over they brought entire families, not just random people. The Chesapeake region colonies were formed by whoever signed up. The reasons that resulted in the differences between the New England and the Chesapeake colonies were political, social, and economic.

Although New England and the Chesapeake region were both settled largely by the people of English origin, by 1700 the regions had evolved into two distinct societies. The reasons for this distinct development were mostly based on the type on people from England who chose to settle in the two areas, and on the manner in which the areas were settled.

In the early seventeenth century, the English began to establish colonies in the New World. The colonies in New England consisted of New Hampshire, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. While, the colonies making up the Chesapeake region were Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Given that the New England and Chesapeake region were both largely settled by those of English origin, by the 1700 they had evolved into two distinct societies because of the contrast in their geographical locations, their political structure, and their social hierarchy.

The paper mills in have a negative effect on Georgia's coastal plain region. The negative effect is caused by human activity such as in Passage A it states that " Almost the entire coastal plain region was once covered in longleaf pine forests; those forests have been destroyed due to human activity." In Passage B it states that " as the paper industry increases then the more the fishing industry decreases." All this Is due to the pollution of humans and paper mills. If we don't stop all of this Ga's coastal plain is going to stay with a critical economy forever.

In order to help save the Bay some changes need to be made, human activity must change, the Bays health needs to become a higher priority and the steps that could be taken to restore the health of the Bay need to be discussed.

In the Chesapeake region, the settlers came for entirely different reasons; they didn't come to form a community in the New World, they came looking for gold. Everything in Virginia—the colonist, the politics, and the society—was based on profit, unlike in the New England region, it was an "every-man-for-himself" society instead of a brotherly community. In History of Virginia, Capitan John Smith wrote that the colonist main reason for coming to the New World was to "… dig gold, wash gold, refine gold, load gold…" Another reason the Chesapeake region was so different from the New England region was because the basis of the settlement was to find gold and ship it back to Mother England, some of the colonist did not plan to stay in the New World either; they were only attracted by the economic benefits.

Cecil was 26 years old when his father, the first lord of Baltimore, died. At this time he inherited all of his fathers lands and money, including the land now known as Maryland. Now it was Cecil jobs to set up and govern the newly established Maryland. He was an intelligent man but didn't have the years of knowledge that his father had in governing colonies. Cecil was a wild card in that people were unsure what type of leader he would become. He turned out to be very wise inviting both catholic and Protestant families and their sons to sail to Maryland and be instrumental to establishing the new colony. These men brought their families and servants to the new world. Lord Baltimore was concerned because though he wanted to join the families he was afraid that if he were to leave England then the Maryland colony may lose the kings support. So instead he sent his brother Lenard on the voyage and named him the first governor. The document that was sent with Lenard would become the basis of Maryland law system, this document was a set of instructions on how to govern the colony. Cecil wanted to makes sure that all Christians, whether protestant or catholic, were treated equally under his new system of government in the Maryland colony. He advised the colonists in the ordering of their settlements so as not to create the arguments or disagreements about belief between Catholics and protestants, while

The first explorer to find Maryland was John Cabot in 1498. In 1608, John Smith entered the Chesapeake bay and explored the area. However, it wasn’t until 1634 when Europeans started settling in huge numbers. Maryland was founded by George Calvert who was the 1st baron Baltimore. Despite raising vegetables and grains and fruits, tobacco was easily the main money making crop to export to the Europeans. However, we have economic problems with the British which is one of the main reasons we want independence. The British make selling tobacco so much harder than it should be. The Glasgow merchants are manipulating us to sell our tobacco for ridiculously cheap prices and we cant take it anymore. Continuing on, our labor force had emigrants from

Protestants were the majority, being tenants of land and outnumbering the Catholics, causing religious tension
