 \n● Creoles, mulattoes, etc.  \n■ Rigid in Great Britain: families migrated over, so rare intermarrige to indigenous people  \n■ Native Americans and African Americans quickly placed at the bottom  \n○ Cultural Blending:  \n■ Natives: voodoo religion (their religion mixed with Christianity), mixed languages  \n○ Conflicts with Natives  \n■ Result of land encroachment  \n● Separate Colonies  \n○ Different economies → Different life norms  \n\n| North (New England Colonies, BreadBasket Colonies) | South (Chesapeake Region, Southern Colonies) |\n| --- | --- |\n\n| ● Farms grew grain crops\u003Cbr>○ Not as labor intensive\u003Cbr>○ Did not need slaves to farm\u003Cbr>● Close-knit towns due to smaller farms | ● Farms grew tobacco, indigo, rice\u003Cbr>○ Labor intensive crops\u003Cbr>○ Used slaves\u003Cbr>● Large farms with aristocratic societies\u003Cbr>○ Isolated farms → people not as close-knit |\n| --- | --- |\n\n***Note: These differences pave the way for the conflict and tensions in Period 5!!
