When living in New York stores aren’t very far. It actually depends on where you live, but even then people are always be very close to a store. Many people actually live pretty close to their favorite stores, since there little distance between them and the store.

Even the big brand name stores require the need to have a car to get to them. Georgia really is car centric state compared to New York where every store is pretty …show more content…
New York history beginning starts in business from as early as the 1700’s. That’s when the state in the early days started to be the focal point of business. Originally focusing on trade with different country like Great Britain. As time went on the state practices of business and trade evolved along with the state. Now there stock markets in certain parts of states so people have the chance to see how the market is doing. Trade side of things it’s developed to the point where the state passed a law. A law called the Trade Waste Commission (TWC) to oversee and regulate the industry in 1996. Which is a law making sure any trading done with business they take care of the waste by product. Now moving to Georgia side of things, the state lacks business but is rich in agriculture. In the state early days it was filled with plantations and farms. The main they grow in those farms was cash crops. Other times it would be cotton. Which was the money making crop for 1800’s Georgia at the time. Most farms back then really only focused on cotton production. More commonly in the southern parts of Georgia, where cotton farming was at its highest. Modern day Georgia now four times the amount of farms it had in early 1800’s. The state even does some agriculture trade with different countries. Most important trading partners for agricultural products are Turkey and the CIS Countries (Forkel ,
Why was there a settlement in Georgia in 1732? On April 21, 1732, King George signed a charter to established Georgia. Oglethorpe believed that the poor will find a new life in the new world. Was Georgia colony a success or a failure? There are three reasons why Georgia was a success or a failure colony.
What would you do if you lived during Georgia colonization? Do you think the Georgian colonization period was a success or failure? Some people may think that the Georgian colonization was a failure because the trustees messed up some things and they didn't do their job of keeping the Jews out of their colony according to the Charter of 1732. I think it was a success because of its defense, charity, and economics.
I’m writing to you to inform you that your colony of Georgia is going great, now. The Good ship Anne was perfect and wonderful for the journey. It took exactly 57 days to get to place called Charleston, South Carolina on January 13th, 1733. Even when we didn’t have the supply to keep going such a food and clean water, we worked out our problems and got through them, out of the 114 passengers only 2 infants didn’t make it. When we got to Charleston we went to man named John Musgrove to ask permission to use Mary Musgrove as a translator.
In her essay, “In Praise of Chain Stores”, Virginia Postrel hails the progressiveness of chain stores and counters arguments made against them. As a frequent shopper in my city, I have experienced the benefits of chain stores and how they affect the locals that shop in them. I believe that chain stores have not turned Augusta into a boring city because they are familiar even to those new to the area, they have a high standard of quality and service, and provide fair fixed prices. First, Postrel quotes Thomas Friedman in her essay, stating that “…America is mind numbingly monotonous- the most boring country to tour; because ‘everywhere looks like everwhere else…’ the familiarity of a Walmart to someone new to Augusta may be a relief,
The differences in the economy in the three different regions of the thirteen colonies were determined by both the people who went there and the environment. The environment limited how the economy was based because an agricultural economy needs good ground for growing, so without good soil, the economy would have to be based on industry. In the New England colonies (Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, and Rhode Island), the economy was dependent on their industries, not their agriculture. The Middle Colonies (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware) were equally dependent on industry as they were on agriculture. The Southern Colonies (Maryland, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia) depended on selling their
The Expansion of Georgia came with many conflicts such as the treaty of New York that was established in 1790 and caused the creeks to move west of the Okeene River. There was also the Yazoo land fraud that started in 1795 and caused Georgia to give up all of the land involved in the fraud to Georgia. Indian removal caused a decrease in population within Georgia but made Georgia to gain more land. Events that accrued during that time affected Georgia economy, social growth and population. Abraham Baldwin wrote the first charter for the University of Georgia.
Towards the end of the Middle Ages, the monarchy began to expand their power and influence, eventually becoming absolute rulers. Having support from the merchant class, the monarchy attempted to unify and stabilize the nation states. In the late seventeenth, early eighteenth centuries, with hopes of expanding English trade and acquiring a broader market for English manufactured goods, the nation states were wealthy enough to fund voyages of discovery and exploration. Over time, ten colonies were established along the Atlantic coast of North America. The first permanent English settlement was established in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607 and in 1620 a ship landed in Plymouth, Massachusetts, marking it as the second permanent English settlement.
The southern colony and New England Colony had many differences. The New England colony was based more in manufacturing while the southern colony was about agriculture as far as their economy. One big difference is that New England colony didn’t believe in slavery like the southern colonies believed. Slaves and indentured servants were the backbone of the Southern economy. They did much of the labor work for the southern colonies cash crops.
Starting in the early 1600’s settlers from England came to “The New World.” England and Spain were competing to claim this new undiscovered land. The English were the first to claim the land by sending the first group of settlers, the Chesapeake settlers. They settled in present day Virginia and Maryland. The Chesapeake settlers came for commercial and profit.
The colonies of Massachusetts and Virginia were a start of the new world for England. These were founded by similar people but, with their strikingly differences, grew into separate political, economic and social structures. Both settlements arose from over-crowdedness in England: people wanted a better life. Virginia was settled by men who were single and looking for opportunities and wealth. They were part of the Anglican religion.
The three main colonies that we hear about are Virginia, Plymouth, and Massachusetts. These three colonies basically define all the others, as each group and its main founder either went for a personal financial gain or to escape religious persecution. Virginia was originally settled by Captain John Smith and grew into a successful trade colony through tobacco. Plymouth was originally founded by the Separatists and was lead by William Bradford. Eventually the dwindling Plymouth joined with Massachusetts which was originally Puritan based.
One example of similarities and differences of the two societies is the Government. In both of our societies the Government controls us and instills laws to help protect our lives. Like in our modern day society we have laws about seat belts the help keep us safe. And in the book ‘Fahrenheit 451’ the Fireman Captain talks about the Government taking away books to help keep people believing in only one government to keep them safe from war. “If you don’t want a man unhappy politically, don’t give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one.
New England and the Middle Colonies are 2 Colonies that are total opposites from each other, but do have some similarities. New England had no religious freedom because if you were not puritan then you could not live there. On the other hand, the Middle Colonies did have religious freedom, you could be a Quaker, Lutheran, Jewish, Catholic or French and a lot more as well. New England and the Middle Colonies share some similarities based on religion and other things as well. Some similarities were that the church was an important part of both New England and Middle Colonies towns.
There are similarities and differences in the Virginia and Maryland colonies .They both used agriculture, had slave societies, and had representation governments. But they certain crops they planted , how their social structures were and the assemblies in government were different. Agriculture was the main source of money for Virginia and Maryland. Plantations in both colonies had good soil for planting.
In my opinion the Southern colonies and the New England had many similarities between them. One of the characteristics in which they were similar was in the form of government; both were ruled by a Royal Government. They were administered by people directly elected by the King. They were constituted by a governor, a royal council and an assembly of representatives which was chosen by the people. In this political system the one who took the important decisions was the governor; controlled expenses and taxes; but the people also had an opinion within the government since they could elect their representatives.
