Explain how English colonies in the New World were different from one another in terms of government, population, and origin.

Each individual colony was extremely different in there on ways, some started for economic reasons and others for religious. Near this time King Henry VIII had wanted to divorce his wife except she was a Catholic meaning they could not divorce. King Henry decided to establish his own Church (The Church of England or Anglican Church). Resulting from that act Plymouth colony was on track, in 1620 the Pilgrims sailed on the Mayflower to New England and eventually becoming part of Massachusetts. That colony was established for religious reasons to separate from The Church of England.Jamestown (Virginia) which was the first colony in the New World, it was established by the Virginia Company, and settled for mainly economic reasons considering it dependent on Native Americans and the Britain. Another colony that was started for religious reasons because of the difficulties they faced from the Church of England was Massachusetts Bay (a great number of Puritans lived here). With leaders like John Winthrop (one of the best speakers in that area) the church controlled everything regilious matters as while as the political decisions. Also Massachuasetts was first colony to introduce a representative government of taxing.The colony Connecticut was the first in America write there own constitution. Unlike Mass. Bay religion was not significant to Connecticut yet trade was. New Hampshire founded by John Mason was shared with Mass. Bay but became an independent royal colony in 1679. Roger Williams was once living in Mass. Bay however was in time banished by Puritans from there due to of his desire to keep religion out of the government. Soon found his way to Rhode Island. Rhode Island established for religion reasons was granted a charter colony for religious freedom.New York formally know as New Netherland found by the Dutch. King Charles II eliminated the Dutch competition by sending the Duke of York to take control of New Netherland. The colony was named after the Duke of York; New York started for economic reasons. New Jersey once ruled by the Duke later granted as a royal colony. Carolina found by the 8 nobles and recognized with their religious and political freedom, ironically slavery was started resulting from the investments in slave trade.Pennsylvania found by William Penn, was used as a sanctuary for Quakers. Pennsylvania was also home to many Quakers, settler who wanted land and Germans. Delaware once owned by Sweden, Dutch, and finally the English. William Penn used Delaware to provide sea access to settlers. Georgia began as a penal colony where Catholics and Africans were banned and also a defense against the Spanish. Each American colony different from one another other by their history, origin, or their government system.
