1. How did England govern the 13 American colonies a century and a half after Jamestown?

England used the policies of mercantilism to maintain control in the colonies. The central government administered its possessions for the economic benefit of the mother country.  

Explanation:

Despite England didn't control its colonies like Portugal and Spain, the British Crown used the same polices as the Iberian Empires. Mercantilism is a mix of economical ideas and practices such as tax collection over exportation and importation, among other policies in order to maintain the control and to let the colonies know that England was close and operating. To work properly, Mercantilism should have an administrator in the colonies chosen by the Mother Country. That's the way England knew what was happening there.

africa, the second-largest continent, is bounded by the mediterranean sea, the red sea, the indian ocean, and the atlantic ocean. it is divided in half almost equally by the equator. the continent includes the islands of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.

africa’s physical geography, environment and resources, and human geography can be considered separately.

the origin of the name “africa” is greatly disputed by scholars. most believe it stems from words used by the phoenicians, greeks, and romans. important words include the egyptian word afru-ika, meaning “motherland”; the greek word aphrike, meaning “without cold”; and the latin word aprica, meaning “sunny.”

today, africa is home to more countries than any other continent in the world. these countries are: morocco, western sahara (morocco), algeria, tunisia, libya, egypt, sudan, chad, niger, mali, mauritania, senegal, the gambia, guinea-bissau, guinea, sierra leone, liberia, côte d’ivoire, ghana, burkina faso, togo, benin, nigeria, cameroon, central africa republic, equatorial guinea, gabon, congo, democratic republic of the congo, angola, namibia, botswana, south africa, lesotho, swaziland, mozambique, zimbabwe, zambia, malawi, tanzania, rwanda, burundi, uganda, kenya, somalia, ethiopia, djibouti, eritrea and the island countries of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.
