Learn and remember the above chart.  Notice how many colonies were "taken back" by the King of England.  Such is the power of kings, and a good reason to dislike that form of government.

Let's continue now with the Colonies around the turn of the century (from 1600 to 1700).  Keep the periods separate in your mind:  1600s and 1700s.  In the 1600s most of colonies were just getting started (except for [[Georgia]], which was the only colony founded in the 1700s rather than the 1600s).  In the 1700s, the colonies were established and were just growing stronger.
