Provincial colonies
New Hampshire, New York, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia were provincial colonies.
The provincial government was governed by commissions created at pleasure by the monarch. A governor and council were appointed, invested with general executive powers, and authorized to call an assembly consisting of two houses (the council itself was the upper house, the assembly being the lower house), made up of representatives of the freeholders and planters of the province. The governor had the power of absolute veto, and could prorogue (ie, delay) and dissolve the assembly.
The assembly could make all local laws and ordinances that were not inconsistent with the laws of England.
Proprietary colonies
Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland were proprietary colonies.
Proprietary governments were grants by patents for special territory to one or more persons from the monarch, giving them rights as proprietors of the land and with general powers of government, in the nature of a feudal principality or royal dependency, and subject to the control of the monarch.
The proprietaries appointed the governor and the legislature was organized and called at his (or their) pleasure. Executive authority was held by the proprietary or his governor.
Charter colonies
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Providence Plantation, and Connecticut were charter colonies.
Charter governments were political corporations created by letters patent, giving the grantees control of the land and the powers of legislative government. The charters provided a fundamental constitution and divided powers among legislative, executive, and judicial functions, with those powers being vested in officials.
