In reality, the majority of them were businesses—profitable businesses. Corporations were quite uncommon at the period, and obtaining one required a charter from the King of England. The Massachusetts Bay Company, which received a royal license and founded the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1628, included one of my ancestors as an investor and owner. By the 1630s, it had drawn over 20,000 people and was highly popular. Most of the others operated in a similar manner.

King James II attempted to put them under closer crown authority by combining them into a Dominion of England, but following his overthrow, they resumed operating by their respective royal charters.

These very charters were a contributing factor in their disputes with Parliament, which sparked the Revolution. A royal charter served as the King's permission to do business independently of politics. In his honor, it granted a number of rights and liberties. The colonies believed Parliament was infringing on their rights.

MArishka [77]

Section 8, Clause 1: Power to Tax and Spend

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

Article I, Section 8, Clause 8: Copyrights and Patents

To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;

Its today's relevance:

Today's world is characterized for an easy digital reproduction and distribution, where anyone can take a content and spread it the way it wants (badly or not), and sell it too. When authors have the copyright of their writings or discoveries, they can protect their work against piracy and control who makes money off of it, legally.

When authors are protected by law that their work will be protected, even if it's just for a limited time, they tend to feel more encouraged to keep creating.
