Self-Government in the Colonies William Penn on top of Philadelphia City Hall Main Idea: Although they recognize the authority of the British monarch, the American colonists develop a tradition of self-government. American colonists are subjects of the British monarchy and expected to obey all British laws. Distance forces the colonists to govern themselves. New England develops the town meeting - a gathering of residents to make decisions for the community Colonies are headed by a governor who is appointed by the king or proprietor (owner). William Penn - proprietor of Pennsylvania

(Grandfather of Aaron Burr) The Great Awakening Main Idea: The Great Awakening is a period of religious revival that sweeps through the colonies in the 1730s and 1740s. Religious leaders, like Jonathan Edwards, call on people to examine their lives and commit themselves to God. Causes an increase in the number of churches, and tolerance of religious differences. Affects the way people view their political rights Reinforces democratic ideals “If we can decide how to worship God on our own, we can govern ourselves.” Jonathon Edwards (Grandfather of Aaron Burr)
