So basically...Their was a governor who represented the colony and reported to the government back in England. It was different because not all members were elected by the people, rather chosen by the highest government.

Answer:

The Royal Colonies had a representative assemply that was elected by the people.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Royal Colonies were ruled and administered by people appointed by the British Crown (royal governor and council), who represented the crown but not the people. However, those colonies had a representative assembly that was elected by the people, that is one of the main characteristics of a representative government.
