The only way to at least tackle the point is to look for the first two distinctive colonies, to check the motives, the religion, and every thing comparable: to say Virginia vs. Plymouth then, New England vs. Chesapeake colonies downwards.

CORRECT. TO WIT...

Each of the colonies was founded for different reasons. Several of the northern colonies were entirely based on escaping religious persecution and creating a theocratic utopia. Each of these was most hospitable to its particular religion, however Rhode Island and Pennsylvania were particularly well known for their generous tolerance. In general these were extremists of their day.

Mass. - Puritan

Penn. - Quaker

Maryland - Catholic

Rhode Island - All welcome

The southern colonies were different in two major ways. First, they were largely opportunistic, with many people coming simply to make money (i.e. second sons with no hopes for a living at home). Second, in doing so they developed large amounts of land which demanded an expansion of slavery in order to cultivate them. The were also well known for their politically motivated foundations. Unlike the northern colonies which were escaping something these were centrist and meant it. All of these colonies were named after Kings and/or Queens

Maryland - (take your pick on which Mary. Queen or virgin)

Virginia - Elizabeth "the virgin queen"

Jamestown - James

Carolina - Caroline

Georgia - George

Both groups of colonies were dealing with an unfair economic system and engaged in indentured "white" slavery.

The New England Middle and Southern colonies had a lot of similarities and differences. For one, the colonies had strong English and French influences. They, however, were different in landscapes, as well as topographic and demographic features.

The Middle colonies were the same as the new England colony because they believed puritan leaders should not punish people for different beliefs.

The most important similarity is that both colonies are located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Appalachian Mountains. Also you could say that they both didnt allow girls to go to colege
