The government structure in the 13 colonies was based on what type of colony it was. The American Colonies were broken down into 3 separate types. They were Corporate Colony; Royal Colony; or Proprietary Colony.
Corporate Colony -
This is when the king granted land to a company. The company governed this land. The charter companies were usually self-governed and the people retained their English rights.
The governor was elected by those qualified to vote. Two-house legislature contained upper and lower houses, and were also elected by the voters.
Royal Colony -
The king and his ministers ruled the land. The king appointed a governor and a council of assistants. The governor had veto power. The governor and council acted as upper house. The lower house was elected by the voters.
Proprietary Colony -
The king granted land to a family, person, or group of people. These people called "proprietors," had as much governing power as the king over their lands. The proprietor usually appointed a governor and a council of assistants.
The governor and the council were the upper house. The lower house was elected by the voters.

What happened to Germanys colonies after World War 1?
After WW1 the League of Nations (the "old UN") laid down arrangements for German Colonies to be allotted to other states as mandates, making the state responsible for fair governments and the mandate to develop and form it's own state. The former German colonies of German East Africa, Togoland and Cameroons were given the Trusteeship status. Britain was given Tanganykia, France the Togoland and the Cameroons and Belgium was given Ruanda-Urundi a.k.a. Rwanda-Burundi. The African lands were put under the charge of the three countries and the countries were supposed to help the mandates with economic, social or political problems. The countries which were allocated lands, were to report every year to the League, but the reports were often skipped or ignored as the Mandates Commission had very limited powers.
