The colonies were governed by state government.
Immediately after the United States of America won its independence its national government was founded on a document called the Articles of Confederation.poop
The Declaration of Independence founded the US government on the principles of human liberty and consent of the governed. The Declaration of Independence announced that the thirteen American colonies would no longer be a part of the British Empire.
The colonies under the administration of the British government were collectively known as the "British Empire." More specifically, the American colonies were often referred to as the "Thirteen Colonies" prior to gaining independence. These colonies were governed directly by the British crown and were subject to British laws and regulations.

Enlightenment philosophers, like John Locke, influenced the colonies by promoting ideas of natural rights, government based on consent of the governed, and the social contract theory. Locke's work, such as his Second Treatise of Government, provided intellectual justification for the colonists' desire for independence and influenced the drafting of important colonial documents such as the Declaration of Independence.
