The correct answer is It started as a charter colony but became a royal colony.

Both Carolina and Virginia started as a Colony but became a Royal Colony - it means it was administered by officials and council of Great Britain.

Virginia started as a Charter Colony - self-governed and the property of the colonies was given by the king to people who had full power rights there. Carolina started as a Proprietary Colonies - it means that it was financed and settled under the jurisdiction of joint stock companies.
