Why were colonial governments not true democracies in the colonies?
Colonial governments were not true democracies primarily because they were often controlled by a small elite of landowners and appointed officials, limiting political participation to a select group. Many colonies implemented restrictive voting rights based on property ownership, race, or gender, effectively disenfranchising large segments of the population. Additionally, colonial decisions were frequently subject to the authority of the British crown and Parliament, undermining local self-governance and democratic principles. This lack of representation and accountability meant that the governance systems in the colonies did not reflect the democratic ideals that would later be espoused in the American Revolution.
