King James II of England planned to consolidate New England into a single royal colony known as the Dominion of New England. This initiative aimed to strengthen royal control over the region and streamline governance by combining several colonies, including Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, under a single administration. The plan faced significant opposition from the colonists, leading to its eventual collapse after the Glorious Revolution in 1688.
