What are the thirteen colonie's capitols?

In: Colonial America [Edit categories]

Answer:

The13 colonies didn't have capitols since they weren't states until 1789 when the United States was formed. They had major cities that will become capitols. The English crown had granted various proprietors and chartered companies authority to establish colonies in America. These grants formed a foundation for the political authority from the crown. This led to the creation of the 12 colonies. In 1713 the British gained Nova Scotia from the French and in the 1730's a group of government sponsored trustees established Georgia. These were private ventures and from 1624-1729 the colonies were royal provinces and the governorship was filled by an appointee chosen from the crown. Colonists expected little from government. Budgets and taxes were low, police establishments small, part time, and unprofessional; military temporary and there was little for the involvement of citizens.
