A colony is an area over which a foreign nation extends or maintains control. In the 17th century, colonies developed in the areas settled by English explorers. Over time, these colonies grew to form the area known as the United States of America. The 13 original English colonies adapted to and modified their environment to meet the needs of colonists.
