Question

A colony is a settlement far away from the government that rules it.

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement is true. A colony is a settlement far away from the government that rules it.

Explanation:

A colony is a dependent territory under the rule of a foreign state, without independent political and economic power, governed by a special regime. Often the colonial regime does not grant the rights of citizens to the population of the controlled territory, comparable to the rights of citizens of the metropolis, such as the denial of voting rights. At the same time, the citizens of the metropolis enjoy more power and privileges in the colonial territories than the indigenous population. The formation of colonies is the main instrument for expanding the influence of the imperialist states.
