Places

In the 16^th and 17^th century, all the places were named and categorized differently. Like when they spoke of Chesapeake, which includes Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. The Chesapeake and New England later became one nation.

            The middle colonies consisted of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York and Delaware. The Lower South consisted of South Carolina, North Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, and Georgia. Even though they weren’t names as that back then, they are now in the present day. Before they’re names were like Massachusetts Bay Colony or Jamestown, which was the first English settlement. Jamestown was founded by the renown John Smith.
