Abstract
Historian John Murrin calls the 17th century the "age of remarkable experimentation in terms of how you organize a colony." The four new colonies Charles II initiates are all proprietary ventures styled after the Maryland model. Despite greater interest in colonization, English migration to the Americas declines toward the end of the 17th century. With improved economic opportunities at home, many potential settlers decide not to take the risk, even though by this time potential dangers have declined considerably.
