In 1679, New Hampshire was established as a royal province.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Captain John Mason found the New Hampshire Colony through a land grant from the Council for New England in 1622.
  • Major industries in the place include fishing, livestock farming, potato farming, manufacturing of textiles and building ships.
  • In 1641, it was claimed by Massachusetts Colony and it was known as Upper Province till 1679.
  • In 1679, it became a Royal Province and 1688 it became a part of Massachusetts again.
