In Colonial America, the various colonial governments generally functioned as scaled-back models of the representative parliamentarian government of Great Britain. Drawing from a limited pool of potential officials (ordinarily, well-to-do or otherwise notable males of European descent) who were elected or appointed to public positions, the colonies governed most local affairs through general assemblies and a wide variety of individual offices.
They fought w/ the natives and they had a fur trade. They also had a social class which divided into four, the peninsulas, creoles, mestizo's, and the Indian's. They didn't have any gold or silver but they made money ($$$) from fishing, trapping animals for their fur, and they traded with the natives.
