European settlers from England, Sweden, Holland, Germany, and France lived closer to each other in this region of colonial north America than they did in Europe. Algonquian and Iroquois tribes as well as enslaved Africans also inhabited the region. A population belonging to various religious groups, including dutch Calvinists, Lutherans, Mennonites, Presbyterians, and Quakers, added to the region’s diversity.
