Delaware started its own colony primarily due to its desire for self-governance and economic opportunities. Initially part of the Pennsylvania colony, Delaware's settlers sought greater autonomy and control over local affairs. The region's fertile land and access to waterways also attracted settlers looking for agricultural prospects.
