Description
An Amish buggy next to a field as families play outdoor in an Amish community. The Amish are members of conservative Christian communities who traditionally isolate themselves from non-Amish societies. They live modestly and often refrain from indulgence in activities associated with urban lifestyles or some modern technologies. Family, God and hard work are sacred to Amish people. Jakob Ammann is credited as the founder of the Amish community in Switzerland in the late 1690s. Amish people are believed to have roots in Europe; specifically, they are mostly from Switzerland and Germany. Ohio, Indiana and Lancaster County (Pa.) are identified as the largest Amish communities in the United States.
