fundamental similarities/differences existed among these
colonies? How does the emergence of these colonies mark a
fundamental shift from the creation of the earlier settlements?

mainland colonies/mother country? What disadvantages did
each group face?

their world? How did it alter their perceptions of the Empire? Did

why and how (or, why not)?
