Reflect On Colonial Connecticut

219 Words1 Pages
This group project on one of the 13 original colonies has taught me a lot on colonial Connecticut. I learned about the main engine that was running its economy, which consisted of infrastructure and manufacturing. This was because the climate in Connecticut was too cold and the soil was too rocky for agriculture. I also learned about religion in Connecticut. The main religious groups were puritans and unlike some states, the puritans did not believe in religious freedom. I also learnt about the type of government that Connecticut had, the type of colony was a charter colony, this basically meant that the british colony and american colonists had an idea and agreement about how the government would be ran and the amount of power each group had.
