New Jersey
In 1664 New Jersey was founded by Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret. It was founded so they could trade and receive profits. New Jersey was a royal colony, which means it is ruled by an individual. New Jerseys economy was based on trade. They would trade tobacco, flour, rice, fish, and corn. If you are familiar with the show "Jersey Shore" the actress Snookie is from New Jersey. Franco Harris, a football player, is also from New Jersey. Back in the colonial days if you were a puritan you would want to go to new Jersey because they attracted many.
