Choose 1<br />

Essay 1: Before 1763, economic issues, rather than religious positions, determined the<br />

development of <strong>American</strong> colonies. Explore the validity of this statement by discussing three<br />

of the following colonies: Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts Bay, Carolinas.<br />

Be sure to demonstrate how economic issues or religious positions affected the colonies’<br />

development.<br />

Essay 2: Did the colonies have more similarities or more differences with the English<br />

political system? Name three colonies and identify 2 areas of similarities or differences. An<br />

area is more than one piece of evidence – it is a general theme that should have several<br />

pieces of supporting evidence.<br />

the text, although you don’t need to cite the text. Please use your own words.<br />
