The renaissance gave way to enlightenment and rebirth. This period of time allowed the modern era to break off from its past medieval era. The renaissance allowed Europe to rise up and be what it is today.
<u><em>In 1684</em></u> the government of <em><u>Charles II</u></em> revoked the <u>Massachusetts Bay Company colonial charter</u>. This was a joint stock trading company chartered by the English crown in 1629 to colonize a vast area in <em><u>New England</u></em>. John Winthrop, Thomas Dudley, Henry Vane, Richard Bellingham, John Endecott, John Leverett, and Simon Bradstreet were some of the Governors. The main reason in England to take this decision was not to attain efficiency in administration but to guarantee that the purpose of the colonies was to make England richer. After the revocation of the <u>Massachusetts charter</u>, <u><em>King Charles II</em></u> and the Lords of Trade moved forward with plans to establish a unified administration over some of the New England colonies.
The Boston massacre was partially the colonists fault because they were harassing the British soldiers by throwing, sticks, rocks and snowballs at them. The soldiers panicked and many accounts say that they heard someone yell fire.
