The correct answer is B. False
Step-by-step explanation:
A proprietary colony was a type of colony in which the land was provided to favorites and delegates of the English crown to be administered. This type of colony prevailed during the 17th century and differ from traditional colonies in which the proprietary and government were the King or the English crown. This also, implies proprietary colonies were more independent and could develop their government. Considering this, it can be concluded it is false a proprietary colony was governed by the king because they had self-governments or were governed by the owner of the land.
