Reason for founding
Audio for a Reason for Founding
It was a safe place for the Quaker religion . William Penn started the colony on October 14, 1644. Compared to the New England Colonies, you were forced to be a Puritan. In the Middle Colonies, you can be whatever religion you want!
How people made
There were many ways people made money in the Middle Colonies. Farming, fur trapping, lumberjacks, and sailors were some of the ways people made money. In the North, the soil is rocky, so it is not good for farming.
Geography
Not swampy!
When it comes to the Colonies, the Middle is the best. It is not to hot, or too cold. In the South, it is hot, humid, and swampy. The Middle Colonies have good seasons, harbors, copper, coal, and iron. It is the ideal place to be when it comes to geography!
