There were three types of British colonies: royal, proprietary, and self-governing.
Explanation
Royal governing: Whichever governor the king chose to govern the colonies governed the colonies.
Proprietary governing: Proprietary colonies were territories granted by the English Crown to one or more proprietors who had full governing rights.
Self-Governing: The colonists chose people to represent them. They ruled a colony, community, or another group by its members. They made their own laws, representatives, etc...
Each colony had a governor who served as head of the government. In some colonies the people also elected representatives to help make laws and set policy.
