Delaware was a proprietary colony, initially part of the larger Pennsylvania colony under William Penn's control. It was granted its own assembly in 1704, allowing for some degree of self-governance. However, it was not established as a charter or royal colony; rather, it functioned under proprietary governance until it became a state in 1787.
