The economic activities of the English North American colonies during the 17th century could BEST be described as **agricultural in the south, industrial in the north**.
In the southern colonies, the economy was primarily based on agriculture, with a focus on cash crops such as tobacco, rice, and indigo. In contrast, the northern colonies developed a more diverse economy that included not only farming (with smaller farms) but also emerging industries such as shipbuilding, fishing, and trade, which can be considered more industrial.
