The English primarily settled in New England and the Chesapeake region in North America. New England, characterized by its Puritan religious roots, focused on community and family-oriented farming and trade. In contrast, the Chesapeake region, including Virginia and Maryland, was driven by tobacco cultivation and relied heavily on indentured servitude and later enslaved labor. These contrasting economic and social structures shaped the development of each region.
