Company Colony
corporate colonyManaged by the colony in nominal terms, the territories included much of New England, centred, including parts of Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Connecticut. The area, which was occupied by the Colombian Empire but never managed, stretched as far as the Pacific. Many of these allegations were contested by the former Netherlands colony of New Netherlands on the grounds that they had ownership interests in countries outside Rhode Island to the westside of Cape Cod and the Plymouth Colony.
Massachusetts Bay Colony was formed by the Massachusetts Bay Company proprietors, including investor Dorchester Company, which in 1623 built a short-lived Cape Ann town. This colony began in 1628 and was the company's second attempted colonisation. In the 1630s about 20,000 persons emigrated to New England.
It was a highly puritanical populace and its management was overshadowed by a small group of rulers strongly affected by Puritan religious rulers. Consequently, the Colombian government showed tolerance for other religions, the Anglican, Quaker,[2] and Baptist itsologies. At first the settlers had good relations with the locals, but tensions arose that eventually resulted in the Pequot War (1636-38) and then the King Philip War (1675-78), whereupon most Indians in New England signed agreements with the settlers (with the exception of the Pequot people, whose survival was largely included in the Narragansett and Mohegan families after the Pequot War).
This colony was commercially prosperous and traded with England and the West Indies. In 1652, a lack of the colony's own durum wheat caused it to found a spearmint. In 1684 British and British disputes after the restoration of England resulted in the annulment of the British Columbian Deed. In 1686 King James II founded the Dominion of New England to put all New England settlements under stricter crownship.
Reign fell apart after the Glorious Revolution of 1688, when James was ousted, and the colony returned to reign under the repealed Charta until 1691, when a new Charta was drawn up for Massachusetts Bay. Massachusetts Bay and Plymouth Colony territory was merged into this provincial area, which owns properties on Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard.
In 1692 Sir William Phips came with the statute and officially took over the leadership of the new provinces. New England's predominance, both politically and economically, by the state of Massachusetts was made possible in part by the early domination of these areas by the Massachusetts Bay settlers. Johnny White kept looking for funds for a colony.
The New England Council gave a property subsidy to a new group of investment firms, including some from the Dorchester Company, on 19 March 1627/8,[21]. Landförderung applied to the area between the Charles River and the Merrimack River, which stretched from the Atlantick and Western Seas and the Atlantic on the eastern side to the South Seas on the western side.
"22 ] The company to which the subsidy was given was The New England Company for a Plantation in Massachusetts Bay. 23 ] The company chose Matthew Cradock as its first gubernator and immediately began organising reserves and the recruitment of people. Company managers searched for a Royal Charter for the colony because they were worried about the legitimacy of contradictory claim to property granted to several corporations (including the New England Company) for the little-known areas of the New World and because of the growing number of Puritans who wanted to join them.
On March 4, 1628/9,[28] Charles issued the new Charta, replacing reallocation of lands and creating a statutory base for the new British colony in Massachusetts. There was no way of knowing whether Charles knew that the company was intended to assist Puritan expatriation, and he probably had to accept that it was a matter of pure commercial concern, as was the practice.
In the Articles of Association, an essential provision was omitted: the place of the General Shareholders' Meetings. In 1629 Charles disbanded Parliament and the company's managers gathered to examine the feasibility of transferring the company's headquarters to the colony. Massachusetts Bay Colony became the first English charters colony whose council of trustees did not live in England.
Charta stayed in effect for 55 years; Charles II rescinded it in 1684. Parliament adopted laws, summarily referred to as navigation laws, which sought to stop settlers from dealing with a country other than England. Colombian opposition to these actions prompted King Charles to withdraw the Massachusetts Charta and consolidated all New England, New York and New Jersey settlements under the rule of New England.
Over the next ten years there was a constant expulsion of Puritans from England, with about 20,000 migrating to Massachusetts and neighbouring settlements during the Great Migration. Many officials responded to England's oppressive religion policy and travelled with their communities, including John Cotton, Roger Williams, Thomas Hooker and others.
Faith splits and the need for extra lands led to a series of new communities leading to the Connecticut Colony (from Hooker) and the Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations (from Williams and others). In 1639, the rise of the three kingdoms' battles in 1639 marked the end of great migrations, and a considerable number of men came back to England to battle in it.
The Massachusetts government had sympathy for the parliamentary cause and generally had good relations with the Commonwealth of England and Oliver Cromwell's protectorate. Colony economies began to be diversified in the 1640''s when the trade in furs, sawn timber and the fishery found outlets in Europe and the West Indies and the colony's shipping industrialized.
As a result of the emergence of a younger colony population and the emergence of a commercial grade, the colony's politics and culture began to gradually transform, although its government remained governed by relatively conservative Puritans. Colombian Commonwealth assistance caused some tensions after the return of the seat to Charles II in 1660.
Attempting to expand the king's grip on the settlements that Massachusetts withstood along with the other settlements, Charles tried to make a name for himself in the city. The Massachusetts Bay colony, for example, consistently rejected applications from Charles and his operatives to allow the establishment of the Church of England, and the New England Colonies in general opposed the Navigation Acts, legislation that limited settlement to England alone.
The war of King Philip (1675-76) devastated all New England settlements when the Indians in the south of New England stood up against the settlers and were conquered, albeit with a high living for all. Massachusetts border was particularly badly affected as several municipalities in the Connecticut and Swift River valley were deserted.
At the end of the conflict, most of the Indians in the south of New England signed agreements of reconciliation with the settlers. In 1686 James II of England administrative united the colony territories with the other New England territories under the rule of New England. It was ruled by Sir Edmund Andros without even a representative in the country, over and above hand-picked councilmen, and was highly disliked in New England.
The Massachusetts officials plotted to arrest Andros in April 1689 after the glorious revolution of 1688 in England, and they rebuilt the administration under the form of the repealed Charta. Years 1689 to 1692 were also challenging because the colony was at the head of the King Wilhelm War and its border municipalities were afflicted by raids organised in New France and carried out by raiders from France and India.
Territory within a city would be shared by a municipal arrangement, usually according to practices originating in England. A well-developed city centre with a taverna, a college, possibly some small stores and an assembly hall used for civil and spiritual purposes would be quite intimate.
The majority of the kids were educated in schools that the colony founder felt were important in building a real relation with God. Restructuring was complete: a commercial enterprise had become a (somewhat) representational democratic entity. A group of expatriates had purchased the entire shares of the Massachusetts Bay Company and taken the Charter to America in 1630; neither the British Emperor nor the British Parliament nor an British company influenced the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
Massachusetts colony was ruled by its river and shoreline. Among the most important were the Charles and Merrimack River, as well as part of the Connecticut River, which was used to carry fur and wood to Long Island Sound. According to the Kolonial charta, the borders were to extend from three nautical miles northerly (4.8 km) of the Merrimack River to three nautical miles southern of the Charles River's most southern point and then west to the "South Pacific".
The course of one of the two streams was known for its considerable length at that period, which finally resulted in border conflicts with the colony's neighbours. The colony's demands were great, but the practical aspects of the times implied that they never really ruled a country further to the west than the Connecticut River Tal.
This colony also took up more land through capture and acquisition, further expanding the area it managed. Initially it was believed that the northerly border would be approximately paralleled by the width of the Merrimack estuary, as it was believed that the stream would mainly run westward. Where Pemigewasset Stream, the main inflow of the Merrimack, joins the Winnipesaukee Stream, locals led the group to the exit of the Winnipesaukee, falsely alleging it was the Merrimack spring.
There the surveying group engraved a writing into a cliff (today known as Endicott Rock), and its width was regarded as the colony's northerly border.

The 1606 Charta did not give a name to the local businesses or councillors, but the April 4, 1629 Charta of King Charles I falsely claimed that the 1606 Charta had given the name "Council based in Plymouth, Devon " to the councillor who ruled the "second colony".
