lozanna [386]

Answer:

Option: struggles with tax collection

mismanagement by the proprietors

North Carolina began as a proprietary colony. To attract settlers in the colony, Lord Proprietors held political control with the landowners. The power was in the hands of the largest plantation owners. Other settlers without wealth or land had little to say in the colony.

North Carolina became a royal colony. It became part of the royal colony when seven Lords Proprietors sold it to King George II in 1729.  The reason for giving it back was the failure of making profits through the cultivation of rice, etc. Most of the owners sold their shares to King George II.
