The Thirteen Colonies were British colonies in North America founded between 1607 (Virginia), and 1732 (Georgia). Although Great Britain held several other colonies in North America and the West Indies, the colonies referred to as the "thirteen" are those that rebelled against British rule in 1775 and proclaimed their independence as the United States of America on July 4, 1776.

Contemporaneous documents usually listed the colonies of British North America in geographical order, from north to south.

New England

Province of New Hampshire, later New Hampshire

Province of Massachusetts Bay, later Massachusetts and Maine

Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, later Rhode Island

Connecticut Colony, later Connecticut.

Middle Colonies

Province of New York, later New York and Vermont

Province of New Jersey, later New Jersey

Delaware Colony (before 1776, the Lower Counties on Delaware), later Delaware

Southern Colonies (depending on the subject under discussion, Virginia and Maryland may be separated as Chesapeake Colonies)

Province of Maryland, later Maryland

Colony and Dominion of Virginia, later Virginia, Kentucky and West Virginia

Province of North Carolina, later North Carolina and Tennessee

Province of South Carolina, later South Carolina

Province of Georgia, later Georgia
