North Carolina
Founding
North Carolina and South Carolina were both technically founded together. They were founded by eight men that got a charter from King Charles II in 1663. This colony was founded for economic opportunity. The colonies were split into to later on in the year of 1712. This was because the Northern and Southern regions were very different from each other. Part of a series of coastal islands that held Roanoke were first be founded off the coast of North Carolina. After a short period of time the colony had gone mysteriously missing with a carving of the word Croatoan, an island nearby; they were never found.
Important Documents
The Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina.
Government
When the Carolinas were founded they were one colony and it was a proprietary colony. In this colony the Lord of Proprietors decided who would be the governor and then the governor would chose the council members. White males chose the mambers of the legislator.
Geography
There is no need to worry about the abundance of livestock, rich soil, or seed. There is plenty of each to go around.
Economy
Unlike South Carolina, the people here don't have as much money. Their houses were much smaller so large families were cramped. They also barely had enough money to feed themselves. When you are very poor and barley making it your thinking tends to be different than those who have more money. The people here were very hardworking and had very few slaves. The people here also believed in a democracy. North Carolina depended more on tobacco, lumber, and other goods.
Religion
If you are a Quaker and/or a member of the Anglican Church, North Carolina would suit you just fine. They founded this wonderful place and they intend to keep the place peaceful. Quakers from Virginia came to North Carolina because they were being mistreated. Baptist and other religions also came.
Celebrity Residents
John White, Walter Raleigh, and Blackbeard all live here and/or visit here often. We have a mighty army to keep Blackbeard at bay, so there is no need to quiver at the sight of his ship. It is all under control.
Target Resident Profile
English, white families, who can support themselves in the New World are most welcome. North Carolina is a proprietary colony, so it is more for people who enjoy making their own decisions. Being a farmer, fishermen, rancher, and lumberjacks would help boost our economy and our colony wants you here. There are very few slaves here so only come here if you are very hardworking and will do everything by yourself. Quakers, Anglicans, and other religions are generally welcomed.
