Williamsburg Colony
The Williamsburg Colony was one of the most famous colonies in American history and was the first British colony in the Americas to last longer. It is an important setting during the American Revolution and the birthplace of the draft American Declaration of Independence. At the beginning of the 17th century, the Virginia Company, a British royal merchant, established the colony of Williamsburg in order to exploit the resources of North America. The original settlement was Jamestown, which later moved to the present-day Williamsburg area in 1607. The Williamsburg colony became one of the most important British colonies in North America and an important setting for the American Revolution. In 1775, the colonial legislature convened the famous Virginia Parliament in Williamsburg, which was the beginning of the early years of resistance and revolt against Britain in the early years of the American Revolution. Today, the Williamsburg Colony is a historic site where visitors can experience colonial life and learn about the history and culture of the American Revolution.
