Before the establishment of the United States, each of the colonies had established their own sovereign form of government. The states wrote and ratified their own state government. This description of the leadership of Connecticut describe what appears to be the executive branch of the state government. The distinction between the executive and legislative might have been less clearly divided then as the twelve assistants might have been intended to assist the governor to write laws, a role now held in the legislative bodies of both state and the federal levels of government.
