Detailed explanation-1: -According to King James II, the Dominion of New England was established to protect colonists from Native attacks. The relationship between the colonists and the Native Americans began amicably, as New England relied upon Native Americans for their survival.
Detailed explanation-2: -The region’s political structure was one of centralized control similar to the model used by the Spanish monarchy under the Viceroyalty of New Spain. The dominion was unacceptable to most colonists because they deeply resented being stripped of their rights and having their colonial charters revoked.
