Answer: The correct answer is : Extreme taxes were established without representation, colony meetings were terminated, colonists' courts and presses were restricted, English navigation laws were implemented to thwart US trade with countries that were not governed For the English crown. The one who requested and directed the domain of New England was Sir Edmund Andros. These efforts failed because most people in the New World moved away from so many extreme restrictions that England had imposed on them.
