The British established 13 colonies in America, which were New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia1. These colonies were established for a range of reasons, from the pursuit of fortunes, to escape from religious prosecution to the desire to create new forms of government1. Before 1981, the British territories were known as colonies or Crown colonies.
