An unexpected result of british salutary neglect was that. a. the colonies became richer than britain wanted b. the colonies’ dependence on british rule grew. c. the colonies developed a separate american identity. d. the colonies began to develop self-government.

The correct option for above statement is:

The colonies developed a separate American identity.
