title="Mid-Atlantic Colonies">Mid-Atlantic Colonies</a>, with the exception of the <a href="/wiki/Delaware_Colony" title="Delaware Colony">Delaware Colony</a> and the <a

The region's political structure was one of centralized control similar to the model used by the <a href="/wiki/Monarchy_of_Spain" title="Monarchy of Spain">Spanish monarchy</a> under the <a href="/wiki/Viceroyalty_of_New_Spain" class="mw-redirect" title="Viceroyalty of New Spain">Viceroyalty of New Spain</a>. The dominion was unacceptable to most colonists because they deeply resented being stripped of their rights and having their colonial charters revoked. Governor <a href="/wiki/Edmund_Andros" title="Edmund Andros">Edmund Andros</a> tried to make legal and structural changes, but most of these were undone and the Dominion was overthrown as soon as word was received that <a href="/wiki/James_II_of_England" title="James II of England">King James II</a> had vacated the throne in England. One notable change was the forced introduction of the <a href="/wiki/Church_of_England" title="Church of England">Church of England</a> into Massachusetts, whose Puritan leaders had previously refused to allow it any foothold. </p><p>The Dominion encompassed a very large area from the <a href="/wiki/Delaware_River" title="Delaware River">Delaware River</a> in the south to <a href="/wiki/Penobscot_Bay" title="Penobscot Bay">Penobscot Bay</a> in the north, composed of the <a href="/wiki/Province_of_New_Hampshire" title="Province of New Hampshire">Province of New Hampshire</a>, <a href="/wiki/Massachusetts_Bay_Colony" title="Massachusetts Bay Colony">Massachusetts Bay Colony</a>, <a href="/wiki/Plymouth_Colony" title="Plymouth Colony">Plymouth Colony</a>, <a href="/wiki/Colony_of_Rhode_Island_and_Providence_Plantations" title="Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations">Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations</a>, <a href="/wiki/Connecticut_Colony" title="Connecticut Colony">Connecticut Colony</a>, <a href="/wiki/Province_of_New_York" title="Province of New York">Province of New York</a>, the provinces of <a href="/wiki/East_Jersey" title="East Jersey">East Jersey</a> and <a href="/wiki/West_Jersey" title="West Jersey">West Jersey</a>, and a small portion of <a href="/wiki/Maine" title="Maine">Maine</a>. It was too large for a single governor to manage. Governor Andros was highly unpopular and was seen as a threat by most political factions. News of the <a href="/wiki/Glorious_Revolution" title="Glorious Revolution">Glorious Revolution</a> in England reached Boston in 1689, and the Puritans launched the <a href="/wiki/1689_Boston_revolt" title="1689 Boston revolt">1689 Boston revolt</a> against Andros, arresting him and his officers. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Leisler%27s_Rebellion" title="Leisler's Rebellion">Leisler's Rebellion</a> in New York deposed the dominion's lieutenant governor <a href="/wiki/Francis_Nicholson" title="Francis Nicholson">Francis Nicholson</a>.

Some originated as commercial ventures, such as the <a href="/wiki/Virginia_Colony" class="mw-redirect" title="Virginia Colony">Virginia Colony</a>, while others were founded for religious reasons, such as <a href="/wiki/Plymouth_Colony" title="Plymouth Colony">Plymouth Colony</a>, <a href="/wiki/Massachusetts_Bay_Colony" title="Massachusetts Bay Colony">Massachusetts Bay Colony</a> and <a href="/wiki/Colony_of_Rhode_Island_and_Providence_Plantations" title="Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations">Rhode Island Colony</a>. The governments of the colonies also varied. Virginia became a <a href="/wiki/Crown_colony" title="Crown colony">crown colony</a>, despite its corporate beginning, while Massachusetts and other New England colonies had corporate charters and a great deal of administrative freedom. Other areas were <a href="/wiki/Proprietary_colony" title="Proprietary colony">proprietary colonies</a>, such as Maryland and Carolina, owned and operated by one or a few individuals. </p><p>Following the <a href="/wiki/English_Restoration" class="mw-redirect" title="English Restoration">English Restoration</a> in 1660, King <a href="/wiki/Charles_II_of_England" title="Charles II of England">Charles II</a> sought to streamline the administration of these colonial territories. Charles and his government began a process that brought a number of the colonies under direct crown control. One reason for these actions was the cost of administration of individual colonies, but another significant reason was the regulation of trade. Throughout the 1660s, the English Parliament passed a number of laws to regulate the trade of the colonies, collectively called the <a href="/wiki/Navigation_Acts" title="Navigation Acts">Navigation Acts</a>. The American colonists resisted these laws, particularly in the New England colonies which had established significant trading networks with other English colonies and with European countries and their colonies, especially Spain and the Dutch Republic. The Navigation Acts also outlawed some existing New England practices, in effect turning merchants into smugglers while significantly increasing the cost of doing business. </p><p>Some of the New England colonies presented specific problems for the king, and combining those colonies into a single administrative entity was seen as a way to resolve those problems. Plymouth Colony had never been formally chartered, and the <a href="/wiki/New_Haven_Colony" title="New Haven Colony">New Haven Colony</a> had sheltered two of the regicides of <a href="/wiki/Charles_I_of_England" title="Charles I of England">Charles I</a>, the king's father. The territory of Maine was disputed by competing grantees and by Massachusetts, and New Hampshire was a very small, recently established crown colony. The <a href="/wiki/Massachusetts_General_Court" title="Massachusetts General Court">Massachusetts General Court</a> authorized Boston silversmith <a href="/wiki/John_Hull_(merchant)" title="John Hull (merchant)">John Hull</a> to produce <a href="/wiki/Pine_tree_shilling" title="Pine tree shilling">local coinage</a> between 1652 and 1682, which the English government considered treasonous.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Massachusetts had a long history of virtually theocratic rule, and they exhibited little tolerance for non-Puritans, including supporters of the Church of England (which was most important for the king). Charles II repeatedly sought to change the Massachusetts government, but they resisted all substantive attempts at reform. In 1683, legal proceedings were begun to vacate the Massachusetts charter; it was formally annulled in June 1684.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>England's desire for colonies that produced agricultural staples worked well for the southern colonies, which produced tobacco, rice, and indigo, but not so well for New England due to the geology of the region. Lacking a suitable staple, the New Englanders engaged in trade and became successful competitors to English merchants. They were now starting to develop workshops that threatened to deprive England of its lucrative colonial market for manufactured articles, such as textiles, leather goods, and ironware. The plan, therefore, was to establish a uniform all-powerful government over the northern colonies so that the people would be diverted away from manufacturing and foreign trade.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Establishment">Establishment</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Dominion_of_New_England&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Establishment"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Following the revocation of the Massachusetts charter, Charles II and the <a href="/wiki/Lords_of_Trade" class="mw-redirect" title="Lords of Trade">Lords of Trade</a> moved forward with plans to establish a unified administration over at least some of the New England colonies. The specific objectives of the dominion included the regulation of trade, reformation of land title practices to conform more to English methods and practices, coordination on matters of defense, and a streamlining of the administration into fewer centers.

Massachusetts had no pre-existing tax laws, so a scheme of taxation was developed that would apply to the entire dominion, developed by a committee of landowners. The first proposal derived its revenues from import duties, principally alcohol. After much debate, the committee adopted a different proposal, in essence reviving previous Massachusetts tax laws.
