Although new england and the chesapeake region were both settled largely by people of english origin, by 1700 the regions had evolved into two distinct societies. why did this difference in development occur politically

The differences in these settlements boiled down to the emotional versus economic stimulus that were experienced by the respective settlers. While the New Englanders tended to be Puritanical in their desire to establish settlements in the "New World," those who settled the Chesapeake region had seen wealth among the present day Carolinas and Georgia, and the latter built large plantations to grow tobacco for trade to Europe and Asia. The former, in the colder regions, settled about creating societies based around a religious or secular ideal, in smaller cities that were self-sufficient and removed from the "Old World" they had left behind.

Ithink it’s a : ) good luck on whatever
