English colonies were established in large part to remove dissident English families from such close proximity to their oppressors in England. They did not find much mineral wealth and instead settled the land and raised English type families and established an English society and did not live near "inferior" natives.

Spain, and to a lessor extent, France came to the new world to rape their colonies of all things of immediate value. Any attempt to settle and work the land was, for the most part, secondary and the Europeans were generally in the minority in these colonies and employed the natives as serfs.

How was English colonial government different from that of Spain and France?

English colonial government was characterized by a greater emphasis on self-governance and local control compared to the centralized authority of Spain and France. The English established representative assemblies, allowing colonies to have a say in their own laws and governance. In contrast, Spanish and French colonies were often governed directly by officials appointed from the crown, leading to a more hierarchical and authoritarian structure. This difference fostered a distinct political culture in English colonies that valued individual rights and political participation.
