All of the above.

The answer is D. The Chesapeake Bay settlers were generally more %26quot;rowdy%26quot;, younger, single males, looking for a buck. The male to female ration in Chesapeake bay was also very skewed, with many many more males than femlaes. The New England colonies, in contrast, were founded not because the land was extremely fertile, oras a capitalistic venture. They were founded as a %26quot;city on the hill%26quot; idea, in that the colony was supposed to be a beacon, an example as to how religion and colonization should be. The settlers were mostly Puritans, and often came as families, partly to escape oppression they were facing in England. There was a problem in England with people who didn%26#039;t practice the state-sanctioned religion being persecuted (depending on the King), and the New England settlers generally saw the Church of England as being corrupted and tainted by other influences, Catholocism among them. Short answer, D ;-)
