The correct answer is C) The people who were given these colonies had full governing rights. 

What was a unique feature of proprietary colonies was that the people who were given these colonies had full governing rights.

At the beginning of the colonization of North America, a proprietary colony was the one who granted pieces of land or territories to proprietors by the British monarchy and had full government rights. The examples are the colony of Carolina or Pennsylvania.

William Penn was the founder of the colony of Pennsylvania. King Charles II had a large loan with the father of William and after the father's death, he granted William a big portion of land in the American territory. William called Sylvania, Latin for "woods." Penn belonged to the Religious Society of Friends or the Quakers.

b. sec, foreign relations

in the 1800s, chinese workers migrated to the united states, first to work in the gold mines, but also to take agricultural jobs, and factory work, especially in the garment industry. chinese immigrants were particularly instrumental in building railroads in the american west, and as chinese laborers grew successful in the united states, a number of them became entrepreneurs in their own right. as the numbers of chinese laborers increased, so did the strength of anti-chinese sentiment among other workers in the american economy. this finally resulted in legislation that aimed to limit future immigration of chinese workers to the united states, and threatened to sour diplomatic relations between the united states and china.
