Howdy Yall to the Southern Colonies
Where You Should Be living!
Slave Work
Slaves working on their master's plantation. The majority of the population here are African American slaves.Here they are used not only for feild work, but also as carpenters, barrel makers, and blacksmiths and tending livestock. And also for cooks, servants, and house keepers. About 500,000 slaves live here in the Southern Colonies.
School House
Here in the southern colonies, we have a decent amount of schools for your children. If not, be free to tutor or hire a private teacher. Unless you'd rather send your sons off to England for them to get a education they'd like best. And if you really want your daughters to get a good education too, you can bring her to one of our dame schools. But if you just want them to learn skills like spinning wool and weaving from their mothers, that's good with us too!
Religion
Here in the Southern Colonies there is freedom of Protestants & Catholics. Then in 1644, Lord Baltimore passed an act of Toleration and provided Christians freedom of and type of Christianity. Unfortunately, he did not extend this law to Jews in many colonies.
