    New England vs. the Chesapeake Region (DBQ) Settlers arrived to the Chesapeake region only to be greeted by unhealthy lands full of despair and labor. New Englanders, on the other hand, were welcomed by fresh air and clean water. As the years passed, the state of these two lands stabilized a bit with each other, but the people’s way of living in these regions did not. New England and the Chesapeake region developed differently because of the types of people who came to each of these places, the goals settlers had in mind when they came, and their individuality/teamwork. The Chesapeake region was occupied mainly by single men, while New England had families. The list of emigrants bound for New England is detailed, with the age of the passenger and their relationship with another person on board, with a decent amount of women (Doc. B). However, the list of emigrants bound for Virginia only has the person’s name and age, with less than twenty women on board (Doc. C). As a result, New England became very populous while the Chesapeake had a less than satisfactory population. Another reason why the two regions were different was because the settlers each had different goals to fulfill. New Englanders, for example, wanted to start a new life with religious freedom. John Winthrop discusses how the settlers “Must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. […] if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, […] we shall be made a story and a…

    Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather. Neo vs. The Agents. Barack Obama vs. Mitt Romney. All of these fights are great. My experiment: soil with a base vs. acid rain, who will reign? Acid rain affects plant growth, yet does adding a base to the soil combat the acid rain effects? In my experiment the two competitors will battle it out to see plant height, germination (the development of a plant), and pods produced.

However, this story was surely very much ahead of its time, as Chopin never found a publisher for it during her lifetime due to the immoral and graphic content of it. “The Storm” was not published until 1969, sixty-five years after her death. Although in…

    He was rather outgoing, the kind of person who could gain someones trust with ease. Everyone who met Chris cared for his well being but he always rejected their concern because of his personality traits. Chris did not want people to care for him, he wanted to care for himself and do everything himself, which caused a massive amount of irony in this novel. McCandless died alone but had written a letter (the S.O.S. note) that went unread until it was too late, which is an excellent example of…
