Answer:
Explanation: royal, proprietary, and self-governing. Each type had its own
characteristics.
Royal colonies were owned by the king.
Proprietary colonies, such as Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware, were basically land grants
from the British government. Individuals were awarded huge tracts of land that they would then
supervise and govern, usually in return for political or financial favors. These colonial governors
reported directly to the king.
Self-governing colonies, including Rhode Island and Connecticut, formed when the king granted a
charter to a joint-stock company, and the company then set up its own government independent of
the crown. The king could revoke the colonial charter at any time and convert a self-governing
colony into a royal colony.
