The debates over religion between New Lights and Old Lights were, in part, the result of insecurities over all of the following EXCEPT

The existence of "strolling poor" indicated an eighteenth century trend in
less available land.

English authorities made the Church of England the official state religion in
the Chesapeake colonies.

The debates over religion between New Lights and Old Lights were, in part, the result of insecurities over all of the following EXCEPT
Relations with England.

The areas of greatest economic equality in British North America were found
In areas of self-sufficient farming.

The majority of North American colonists made their livings as
Subsistence farmers.

The Spanish who came to California were
Eventually able to develop a flourishing economy based on farming and ranching.

The heart of the French community in North America was
The farmers (habitants) who had farms along the St. Lawrence, the Mississippi, and in the Illinois country.

The Puritans in New England
Established the tradition of republican rule and local autonomy by allowing church members to run their own affairs.
The Spanish established missions north along the Pacific Coast from Baja California after hearing rumors about the expansion of what country in the northern Pacific?
Russia.

The French generally had better relations with Native Americans than the English because
The French actively sought alliances with native peoples.

British North America was said to be unusually democratic for the eighteenth century because
Taxation and spending were controlled by legislative bodies elected by the colonists.

In French North America, the native peoples were primarily
Regarded as trade partners and thus key to the economy.

The first European city established in the present-day United States was
St. Augustine.

Colonists in New England enjoyed a higher literacy rate than those in other parts of North America primarily because
Puritans believed all should be able to read the Bible.

The lives of African slaves differed from those of indentured servants in
Their prospects for the future.

The British caste system in North America
Featured a great deal of social mobility.

British colonies grew more rapidly in the eighteenth century than did French and Spanish colonies primarily due to
English encouragement of both Englishmen and foreigners to immigrate to the British colonies.

Making the Puritan Church the established church in New England led to
The expectation that all colonists should attend services.

Settlers who moved out into the Pennsylvania and Virginia backcountry
Squatted on their land and defended their claims with force.

Immigration to New York lagged behind that to Pennsylvania because
New York's elite, who controlled the land, preferred to rent to tenants rather than sell.

Religious revivalism appealed to many in New England in the 1730s because
Young people from poorer families were unhappy with the economic future they faced.

By the middle of the eighteenth century, New England faced the serious problem of
Scarcity of land due to the growth in population.
