Thirteen British colonies were divided into three geographic zones called the New England, Middle, and Southern colonies. The economic, social and political developments of each zone is different.

Explanation:

New England colonies followed Theocracy which means that the government of New England were controlled by the church and the middle colonies followed a system wherein the church and the government were independent and separate. Southern colonies followed the system of oligarchy wherein the rich and wealthy plantation owners controlled the government. But all these three colonies followed democracy. The colonies practiced democracy and self rule.

The geographic position of New England colonies were on the farms which were small and located in the outskirts of the town and much of the area is covered by thick and dense forests and hence the wood which served to found inn abundance was was removed and used for ship building purposes. The middle colonies comprised of more fertile and agricultural farms and hence wheat production was found to be in plenty and acted as the source of revenue for the middle colonies. Southern colonies cultivated crops like cotton and tobacco. the issue of slavery was large in southern colonies who started to employ slaves in the fields but it did not persist in north and middle colonies.
