''emigrants who paid their own way to virginia would receive fifty acres of land and not be mere tenants. civil authority would control the military. in 1619, based on the instructions, governor yeardley initiated the election 22 burgesses by the settlements and jamestown, who, together with the royally - appointed governor and six - member council of state, would form the first general assembly as a unicameral body. the governor could veto its actions and the company still maintained overall control of the venture, but the settlers would have a limited say in the management of their own affairs, including their finances. a house of assembly was created at the same time in bermuda (which had also been settled by the virginia company, and was by then managed by its offshoot, the somers isles company) and held its first session in 1620. <SEP> the movement to create a territory within the present boundaries of colorado followed nearly immediately. citizens of denver and golden pushed for territorial status of the newly settled region within a year of the founding of the towns. the movement was promoted by william byers, publisher of the rocky mountain news, and by larimer, who aspired to be the first territorial governor. in 1859, settlers established the territory of jefferson, and held elections, but the united states congress did not recognize the territory, and it never gained legal status. <SEP> American Research and Development Corporation (ARDC) was a venture capital and private equity firm founded in 1946 by Georges Doriot, the former dean of Harvard Business School and "father of venture capitalism", with Ralph Flanders and Karl Compton (former president of MIT). <SEP> Massachusetts was first colonized by principally English Europeans in the early 17th century, and became the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in the 18th century. Prior to English colonization of the area, it was inhabited by a variety of mainly Algonquian language indigenous tribes. The first permanent English settlement in New England came in 1620 with the founding of Plymouth Colony by the Pilgrims who sailed on the Mayflower. It set precedents but never grew large. A large - scale Puritan migration began in 1630 with the establishment of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and spawned the settlement of other New England colonies. Friction with the natives erupted in the high - casualty King Philip's War in the 1670s. Puritanism was the established religion and was strictly enforced; dissenters were exiled. The Colony clashed with Anglican opponents in England over its religious intolerance and the status of its charter. Most people were farmers. Businessmen established wide - ranging trade links, sending ships to the West Indies and Europe, and sometimes shipping goods in violation of the Navigation Acts. These political and trade issues led to the revocation of the Massachusetts charter in 1684.
