The colony of Massachusetts had a long history of refusing to comply with English Navigation Acts. The colony viewed itself as far from English control with England a sea away. The policy of the English toward the colonies had been one of neglect while it focused on European issues. The efforts to diminish Puritan power had resulted in an effort by Sir Edmund Andros to control the colony with a Dominion of New England with royal controls; however, the Glorious Revolution led to an end to this effort. Eventually, Massachusetts would have its charter revoked but Massachusetts would also become a hotbed of revolution in the 1770's.
