North Carolina
Come have a great life in North Carolina
Region
North Carolina is a southern colony that was one part of a bigger colony called Carolina but was separated into North and South Carolina. Also, this colony was originally founded by Virginia colonists.
Clothing
Men wear linen shirts, breeches and a vest called a waistcoat. Little children of both genders wear gowns but when boys get a little older they start wearing breeches. When girls get older they start wearing more elaborate gowns that suit their age.
Games
Children never get lonely because they usually have many siblings to play with. Girls mostly played with dolls that were made out of scrap materials. Kids also play games like tag and hide-and-seek.
Food
North Carolina is in the South where most people have at least a little bit of land where they would grow some basic vegetables that would feed themselves. Families also have chickens, cows, and pigs with which they could make milk, butter, cheese and eat the chickens and the pigs.
Making a Living
Most people in North Carolina are farmers and getting your own land to grow a cash crop like tabacco is a dream to most settlers. As towns grow and more people come more specialised craftsmen like carpenters, blacksmiths, weavers, etc, start to come along.
Educational System
Boys and girls in the colony go to elementary school together where they learn basic skills like math, reading and writing. While boys further their education girls stay home and learn skills that a housewife needs like knitting, cooking, and cleaning. Boys go to something called grammer schools where they learned Latin, rhetoric, and advanced arithmetic. These subjects are to prepare them for college and taking over their fathers' trade and businesses.
