The English colonies in America were ruled by three types of government: Royal colonies. These were governed by the king of England. Proprietary colonies were granted directly by the king of England to a person or a family. Such as Pennsylvania or Maryland. And finally, self-governing colonies such as Connecticut or Rhode Island, when the king of England granted a chart to a joint-stock company that oversaw the colony. In the case of New France (nowadays Canada), the King of France ruled over the land.
