King James I exerted control over Virginia primarily through the establishment of the Virginia Company, which was a joint-stock company that managed the colony's operations. After the company's initial struggles, he revoked its charter in 1624, making Virginia a royal colony directly governed by the crown. This allowed James to appoint a governor and council, thereby centralizing authority and ensuring that colonial policies aligned with the interests of the monarchy. His control was also reinforced through military presence and the regulation of trade and land.
