This term means the lack of British influence over the control of local matters in the colonies. The king did not legislate much, and the colonies supported England. This led the colonies to create local governments and run the colonies in the way they saw fit. This lasted until the Seven years war when England realized what they had, and started to tax the colonists heavily.

Britain pursued a policy of salutary neglect toward her American colonies because Britain wanted obedience from them and without restrictions, the colonies would flourish. Salutary neglect is an undocumented, though longstanding, British policy of avoiding strict enforcement of parliamentary laws, meant to keep the American colonies obedient to Great Britain. Britain also passed unjust laws and many different acts upon the colonists to keep their loyalty towards them. Salutary neglect was a main factor for many battles and wars and it was mainly so Britain wouldn't lose the colonists' loyalty and they would stay under their government.

The British policy of salutary neglect toward the American colonies inadvertently contributed to the American Revolution. This was because during the period of salutary neglect, when the British government wasn't enforcing its laws in the colonies, the colonists became accustomed to governing themselves.
