Southern Colonies

GEOGRAPHY & CLIMATE

The geography and climate are a key part to living

The southern colonies have very important geographical landforms that will help us improve our colony safely

GEOGRAPHY

Here in the southern colonies we have many important geographical landforms, one being flatland. As you may know, flatland is perfect for constructing shops and homes for people who decide to live here. As you also may know, constructing more shops and homes will help us make a bigger and better economy for the people

CLIMATE

The climate here in the southern colonies is the warmest of all the colonies, so we don't have to worry about the freezing cold winters. Which is a very good thing because some freezing cold winters could be deadly, due to starvation if you happen to run out of food, or you could get sick or get something called hypothermia. Hypothermia is a medical emergency that occurs when your body loses heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body temperature, which is not a very good thing.

LORD BALTIMORE

JAMES OGLETHORPE

IN 1632, Charles I, England's new king, gave part of Virginia to Lord Baltimore, one of his followers. This new colony was called Maryland. Lord Baltimore belonged to the Catholic Church, so he welcomed other Catholics who were not always accepted into other colonies.

In 1732, King George II, let James Oglethorpe start a colony (Georgia) for british people jailed for debt. Oglethorpe was welcomed by Tomochichi, cheif of the Yamacraws. Georgia became known for it's good relations with American Indians, all thanks to Oglethorpe.
