Discuss the development of self-governing structures (ideas) in the colonies and describe the impact of political precedent (firsts) on the evolution of self-governing structures (ideas) in the colonies. This is a APUSH exam DBQ question from one of the years.

The American colonies developed forms of self-government because they were given a great amount of liberty from their inception.

Explanation:

For example, the Puritan colonies of New England were established by private individuals, and while they legally belonged to the Kingdom of England, they were very independent: town assemblies in each colony controlled almost every aspect of political and legal life.

The importance of political precedence is that the colonists developed a self-governing culture, so when this culture was threatened by Britain, they disagreed with this, and launched the American Revolution.
