What was the southern colonies economy?

1) Profit was the primary motive behind the founding of the Southern colonies of Virginia and the Carolinas. The Virginia Colony, the first permanent English colony in North America, was established in 1607 with the founding of Jamestown.

2) The Southern colonies were almost exclusively Anglican (Church of England) because they were English colonies. These churches were supported by the state through taxation. Other denominations had to ask permission to form churches, and their financial support was provided through the people who were members.

3) The Southern Colonies were dominated by a desire to make money in the new American marketplace, which led to the development of large plantations and an agriculturally-focused society. Much of the labor on the farms and plantations was done by slaves brought over from Africa.

4) The southern colonies' economy was based on agriculture (farming). ... The cash crops of the southern colonies included cotton, tobacco, rice, and indigo (a plant that was used to create blue dye). In Virginia and Maryland, the main cash crop was tobacco.
