Thank you for help Ms. Sue
You are welcome.
No, a proprietary colony is not owned by a totalitarian leader.
A proprietary colony is actually owned by wealthy investors and businessmen, as mentioned in option B. These investors and businessmen would typically receive a charter from the monarchy, allowing them to establish and govern the colony. In turn, they would often have significant control and influence over the colony's development and affairs.
