Detailed explanation-1: -The New England colonies developed an economy based on shipbuilding, fishing, lumbering, small-scale subsistence farming, and eventually, manufacturing. The colonies prospered, reflecting the Puritans’ strong belief in the values of hard work and thrift.
Detailed explanation-2: -Similar to New England colonies, the Middle colonies also flourished in trade of major items like iron and furs. When comparing both New England and Middle Colonies, both utilized forms of self-government.
Detailed explanation-3: -Both the New England colonies and the Southern colonies seemed as though they might be the same. They both started out with the majority of people being from England, they were both in the New World, and they were both ruled by England but, as time went on this theory was proven wrong.
Detailed explanation-4: -In both the New England and Chesapeake regions, English colonists established settler colonies based on agriculture, in contrast to French trading posts in Canada. These settlements were based on some form of agriculture and had some measure of self-sufficiency, especially in New England.
