The Southern Colonies

Reasons for Founding!

Are you Catholic? Come to Maryland! Are you in need of money? Come to the Carolinas! Are you a debtor? Come to Georgia! Maryland was made to be a Catholic paradise! The Carolinas were made to be flowing with money! Georgia was made to free all debtors and protect other states so we can be safe!

The Beautiful Geography!

In the Southern Colonies, we have great soil, perfect for farming tobacco, cotton, rice, and indigo! Yes, you heard me right! We have indigo! That means we have.....purple clothes! We also are next to Chesapeake Bay! That means we can ship our beautiful purple things back home! We can earn a lot of money from that! Also, our climate is ideal for farming!

Southern Economy

The Southern colonies have GREAT economy! Here in the South, we can grow indigo for PURPLE CLOTHES! Since we are next to Chesapeake Bay, we can send it onto ships and sell it for lots of money! We also farm cotton, rice, and tobacco. We sell lumber, too.

Charleston

Welcome, welcome! This is the moneymaking paradise! We are rolling in MONEY! That is all thanks to indigo! We are one of the ONLY places to grow indigo just because of our beautiful climate!

Comparing Colonies

If you go the New England Colonies, than you won´t be able to farm as well because of the hard, rocky, soil. Yuck! Also, they are very strict about the rules. You can ONLY be a PURITAN!

If you go to the Middle Colonies, you might have to KILL beavers as a JOB. They also have cold winters.

Come on, to the sunny South! We have money! We have safety! We have a place for Catholics! WE HAVE EVERYTHING!
