The colonies are alike because both got along well with the natives and brought new things like food and different techniques on how to do things and they both taught taught eachother many different things.

There differences are they both came for different reason is jamestown came to make more money.The colonies of plymouth came because to get religouse freedom and escape prosocution from the english leaders.

4.A Religion and church influenced the government because it was a law that citizens had to take 3 to 4 years of religion


5.A Dear Netherland,

The great migration is great! 1 way it is great is because there is a freedom of religion. also there is a large number of english citisenz leaving for the americas so i should be just fine.

Jamestown offered a good defensive position. Warm climate and fertile soil allowed large plantations to prosper.
Plymouth provided an excellent harbor. Cold climate and thin, rocky soil limited farm size. New Englanders turned to lumbering, shipbuilding, fishing and trade.
So the differnce would be the climate and the working being done.

One differendce is james town came to america because they wanted to find gold and become rich, but Pymouth came to america for religious reasons. they wanted religious freedom.

they both came to america and brought trading goods and diseases(Columbian Exchange). Also they both sometimess got along with the indian but then allso sometimes didnt get along with them.
