The ports of Charleston, South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia traded with Great Britain slave ships from Africa and the Caribbean. Their cash crops were tobacco, cotton, indigo, rice, and sugar cane. Colony and Dominion of Virginia and Province of Maryland are sometimes considered part of the Southern Colonies. Each colony also obtained several peculiar features that deracinated them from one another. Maryland, also considered as the “Catholic Haven”, sheltered for more Catholics than any other English colony.
The need for worshipping abstract, “almighty” entities is common to the majority of cultures, even if in very different ways. Religion was - and still is – one of the crucial points in the construction of any society and it wasn’t any different in helping the construction of the slaveholding society in America. In the seventeenth century, when the British implemented the slaveholding culture in America, thousands of slaves were brought from African countries in order to facilitate the work of the settlers. With them, they brought a series of customs, including their religious practices. Those rituals were completely different from the ones of Christian slaveholders, like shamanism and other tribal cults.
However the Europeans began to export these African slaves across the globe to established colonies in both North and South America for the first time. This impacted the European economy because they forced the African slaves to do different kinds of agricultural work, including farming and
When sailors came to the Americas, they introduced diseases such as; small pox, measles, mumps, whooping cough, influenza, chicken pox, and typhus. Small pox, a disease originated from livestock, had the most devastating effect on the Native American population. It is estimated that small and the other diseases wiped out about 90 percent of the population. Although disease was exchanged to Eurasia and Africa as well, it did not have as much as a disastrous effect as disease in the Americas. Because the disease wiped out so much of the population, the Columbian exchange inadvertently changed many economic aspects of the Americas.

Dimock, provided the world with a firsthand account of what Spanish Cuba was like during the mid-19the century. Joseph J. Dimock had married into a family who owned a Cuban sugar plantation. Dimock was one of many Americans who showed interest in Cuba, and in February and March 1859, Dimock traveled to Cuba and recorded his experience within his diary. His itinerary on the island took him from Havana to Regla, Matanzas, Cardenas, and Recreo and then all along the north coast of the provinces of Havana and Matanzas. Through his diary Dimock reveals the island’s lush tropical beauty as well as his political and racial views, which were shared by many Americans at the time.
The history of African and West Indian culture is reflected in many of the recipes and food traditions that remain popular today. The southern United States, where the slave population was greatest, has developed a cooking culture that remains true to the African-American tradition. As Doris Witt notes in her book Black Hunger (1999), the "soul" of the food refers loosely to the food's origins in Africa. Some common soul foods include intestines (chitterlings), pork chops, fried porgies, potlikker, turnips, watermelon, black-eyed peas, grits, hushpuppies, and pancakes. Today, many of these foods are eaten by African Americans only on holidays and special occasions.
Several predominantly African American churches exist as members of mostly white denominations.
