Fortunately for the 13 colonies, their people enjoyed a common origin and heritage overall and spoke the same language. Not as much as you might think. Message 15078990 Try to remember - Virginia was founded by Protestants - Maryland was Catholic and tolerant - Pennsylvania was founded by the Quakers - Massachusetts was founded by the Pilgrims - New York was founded by the Dutch - Louisiana was founded by the French - the people who lived in the states didn't want to lose their identity. Each state approaches state government in a different way. Proper government of a country as large and as populous as the United States must be decentralized - otherwise, the big cities will control the rural areas in such a way as benefits the big cities at the expense of the rural areas. This is unacceptable to the rural areas, and that's why the Electoral College was adopted, and why it will never be abandoned.
