From 1624 to 1729 the majority of the colonies were royal provinces. Governors were in charge of enforcing British law and carrying out other directives. There were upper houses and lower houses in the legislatures in each colony. As well as local control in each colony with county courts, parish officers, selectmen and other officials. Colonists expected little from their government. Budgets and taxes were low, paid full time officials were few, and military establishments few.
=Great Britain almost entirely ruled the colonies in the 1700s.=
England put up taxes to the colonists because King George III needed to pay off some war expenses. The colonists did not want to pay these taxes for they did not to be ruled by England anymore.
Wouldn't you be angry if you were being ruled by a king that was on the other side of the world? Ever heard of taxation with out representation? Colonists didn't have any voice on the laws in the colonies.
