The charters of the Virginia Company of London granted the same rights to English settlers in the New World as those enjoyed by English citizens in England. This included rights to land ownership, self-governance, and the ability to participate in trade. The charters aimed to establish a framework for settlement and economic development, reflecting the legal and civil rights of Englishmen.
The two joint stock companies granted charters to settle Virginia were the London Company and the Plymouth Company. The London Company, established in 1606, was responsible for founding Jamestown in 1607, the first permanent English settlement in North America. The Plymouth Company, formed around the same time, aimed to establish settlements in northern Virginia but had less success compared to its counterpart.
The document that allowed for the establishment of settlements in North America was the Charter, specifically the charters granted by the English Crown to various companies and colonies. Notable examples include the Virginia Charter of 1606, which authorized the establishment of the Jamestown settlement in Virginia, and the Mayflower Compact of 1620, which set up a framework for governance among the Pilgrims in Plymouth. These charters provided legal rights and frameworks for colonization, enabling European powers to claim and settle lands in North America.

Early in his reign, King James I issued royal charters for the colonization of the mid-Atlantic region, now Virginia, to English stock-joint companies, which raised capital by selling shares. In other words, it was colonized to make money for England and possibly expand trading.
First issued in 1606, by England's King James, the Charters of the Virginia Company of London garanteed to the settlers who went to Jamestown and other Virginia settlements the same rights as Englishmen.
