spain
the colony was economically successful, engaging in trade with england and the west indies. a shortage of hard currency in the colony prompted it to establish a mint in 1652. political differences with england after the english restoration led to the revocation of the colonial charter in 1684. king james ii established the dominion of new england in 1686 to bring all of the new england colonies under firmer crown control. the dominion collapsed after the glorious revolution of 1688 deposed james, and the colony reverted to rule under the revoked charter until 1691, when a new charter was issued for the province of massachusetts bay. this province combined the massachusetts bay territories with those of the plymouth colony and proprietary holdings on nantucket and martha's vineyard. sir william phips arrived in 1692 bearing the charter and formally took charge of the new province. the political and economic dominance of new england by the modern state of massachusetts was made possible in part by the early dominance in these spheres by the massachusetts bay colonists.
