Good evening, class. Well, tonight we’ll begin our discussion of the colonial period of American history. During this period, people in North America lived in colonies under the authority of the King of England. (11/12) We’ll look at the three kinds of American colonies before the American revolution: royal colonies, proprietary colonies, and corporate colonies.
     The first type of American colony was a royal colony. A royal colony was directly under the control of the King of England. By the time of the Revolutionary War in 1775, eight of the colonies had become royal colonies. Georgia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia were all royal colonies, directly subject to the King of England.
     The second type of American colony was a proprietary colony. (13)A proprietary colony was under the control of an individual, the proprietor. By 1775, only three of the colonies remained proprietary colonies: Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.
     And the last type of American colony was a corporate colony. These colonies were governed under a charter received from the King of England by a company’s stockholders. Only two colonies, Connecticut and
Rhode Island, could be considered corporate colonies.
     So, these were the three types of colonies: royal, proprietary, and corporate. As we discuss the colonies in detail, you’ll see how the type of colony affected the governing of the colony. We’ll study the 13 colonies in three groups, the Northern colonies, also known as the New England colonies, the Middle colonies, and the Southern colonies.
