Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The governing principles that united New England, Middle, and Southern

Colonies were the necessity of a representative government, the need for establishing an order for the social system, and the idea of a limited government.

These were the principles that united the 13 American colonies in a time when discontent among them started to increase against the English crown due to the heavy taxation imposed by the government of Great Britain. American colonists had to pay non-sense taxation such as the Navigation Acts, the Tea Act, or the Stamp Act, among many others.
