Answer:

B)Middle colonies

Step-by-step explanation:

The dutch wedge was a portion of land that was controlled by the Dutch empire, it divided the British colonies and separated them in north and south, the King of England didn´t like this portion of land separating its colonies so he would eventually gain control over them and would found the middle colonies.
