The area in the colonial era that would be likely to have the greatest number of large landowners and indentured servants is the Southern colonies.
The Southern colonies, which included areas like Virginia, Maryland, the Carolinas, and Georgia, were characterized by large plantations that required significant labor, often provided by indentured servants and enslaved Africans. In contrast, the New England and Middle colonies had more diversified economies and smaller farms, and the Ohio River Valley was not as developed for large-scale plantation agriculture during the colonial period.
