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.

Virtual representation was a scapegoat to let Parliament tax the colonies even though the colonies couldn't elect members for Parliament. It meant Britain could tax the colonies without colonial representation.
