Compare the founding and development of society in Virginia and Massachusetts Bay
What will be an ideal response?
Students should point to the commercialism that dominated Virginia, which encouraged the development of commercial agriculture and indentured servitude. They will identify the Christian utopian impulse that was central to Massachusetts Bay, though the stronger ones will recognize the existence of commercial impulses as well. Students should stress the different institutions that will grow out of these impulses. In Massachusetts, a society of tightly-knit communities and families emerged in contrast to the individualism of Virginia.
