Charles II, after being restored to the British throne, gave royal charters to CT and RI and implemented the Dominion of New England. They generally failed because the English crown had left the colonies in isolation for many years
It was in fact during the 18th (not the 17th) century that British (or, English) efforts to control the American colonies were made in a historically significant way. More precisely, it was after 1763 that a series of tax- and tariff-related measures, along with other important control-tactics, were implemented by the British against the American colonists. All failed to secure British control for one fundamental reason: they were interpreted by a significant number of Americans as tyrannical and otherwise unjust; hence, they only made control more, rather than less, difficult to achieve for the British overlords.
The crown imposed high taxes on the America colonies after passing the Stamp Act. The British parliament also passed the Declaratory Act that made the colonies subordinate to British authority. The American settlers opposed taxation and British authority. This triggered the American revolutionary war from 1775 to 1783, and the Americans gained independence after winning the war
The English came up with the English Navigation Laws. The purpose was to thwart American trade with countries not ruled by the English crown. The people soon became outraged to the verge of revolt thus putting into action the Glorious Revolution overthrowing James II. William and Mary were enthroned and they relaxed the royal grip on trade and the much-resented Navigation Laws were relaxed, and only weakly enforced.
The English empire expanded into America in the mid seventeenth century by making permanent colonies. The first colony was in Virginia. They then moved to the Caribbean and other parts of North America.
The 19th century European imperialism was mainly caused by the desperate need of nations to secure their acquired territories and colonies. Also, they needed to strengthen their military forces to defend against possible invasion.

The English government could do little to stop the colonies founding in the early 17th century--benign neglect is the best description of their 'tolerance' without supporting the colonies. While they tried to coordinate the founding of colonies and to attempt to collect taxes and make other benefit from the colonists work, they were largely ignored, as most of the New England colonies after Massachusetts were formed without their blessing by dissenters of the original colonies. They were begrudgingly recognized eventually, though colonies that struck personal nerves (such as the harbor of judges that sentenced Charles the First to death) received no recognition, which resulted in the harbor of the judges (New Haven) to be merged with Connecticut. It was in the rule of Charles the Second, in the late 17th century, that benign neglect ended and he immediately stopped tolerating the colonies blatant disregard for English policy, revoking their charters and political status.

The population of the 13 colonies in the 17th century ranged from around 50,000 in 1625 to approximately 250,000 by the end of the century. The majority of the population consisted of English settlers, with smaller numbers of individuals from other European countries and enslaved Africans.
English became the official language of the United States through the adoption of the English language in the 18th century when the nation gained independence. Additionally, the first English settlers in the early 17th century established English as the predominant language in the American colonies.
