Although many differences separated Spain and France from England, perhaps the factor that contributed most to distinct paths of colonization was the form of their government.

An absolute monarchy is a state in which the monarch has sovereign power and controls all aspects of government without being checked by any representative assemblies.

A limited or constitutional monarchy is a state in which the power of the monarch is checked by other constitutionally sanctioned institutions, such as a REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY (e.g., the British Parliament).

The English kings who ruled the 13 original colonies reserved the right to decide the fate of their colonies as well, but not alone.

Such was the case with the VIRGINIA HOUSE OF BURGESSES, the first popularly elected legislature in the New World.
