American Crown colonies were territories in North America that were directly governed by the British Crown, as opposed to being under the control of charter or proprietary governments. These colonies included Virginia, Massachusetts, and New York, among others. The Crown exercised direct authority over their administration and laws, often leading to tensions with colonists who sought greater self-governance. The Crown colonies played a significant role in the development of colonial governance and the eventual push for independence from British rule.
