New England Colonies  The New England colonies had small farms and ship building.

Middle Colonies  The Middle colonies had some farming and later on factories.

Southern Colonies  The Southern colonies were agricultural with large plantations, originally producing tobacco but later on growing cotton.

Slave Trade  Slaves were brought from Africa to work on the plantations in the South.  The “Triangular Trade” was between Africa (slaves), the Caribbean (sugar) and the Colonies (rum).  The “Middle Passage” was the boat trip the slaves had between Africa and the Colonies. It was a brutal trip where many slaves died from poor conditions or committed suicide.
