24 magg 1624 anni - Virginia Becomes a Royal Colony
Descrizione:
Virginia became a royal colony in 1624 when King James I revoked the charter of the Virginia Company due to mismanagement and financial troubles, bringing it directly under the control of the crown. This transition marked a significant shift in colonial governance, leading to greater royal involvement and oversight in the colony, setting a precedent for the future administration of other English colonies in North America.
