Major industries in the place include fishing, livestock farming, potato farming, manufacturing of textiles and building ships. In 1641, it was claimed by Massachusetts Colony and it was known as Upper Province till 1679. In 1679, it became a Royal Province and 1688 it became a part of Massachusetts again.
