Question

How was a Propriety Colony governed in Maryland?

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Native American Algonquians lived in the region for about ten thousand years before the arrival of the first Europeans. The first of them was the Spaniard Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, then the governor of the Spanish colony of Florida. This had explored the Chesapeake Bay, now part of Maryland, in 1572. The British merchant William Claiborne, of Virginia, founded in 1631 the first trading post.

That same year, George Calvert, a British nobleman, asked the British Crown for the property and government right of the Chesapeake Bay region. Calvert was Catholic and wanted a colony in America where the British of that religion, discriminated against in their country (of Protestant majority), could practice their cult. His request was accepted by King Charles I of England in 1632. However, Calvert would die in April of the same year. Carlos I yielded then to the son of Calvert, Cæcilius, Maryland ("Earths of María"), in tribute to the queen Enriqueta María of France, wife of Carlos I.
