The main significance of the Dominion of New England was that "It removed some of the rights of colonists to govern themselves," since this was a way for the English to control the colonies for their own social and economic gain. 

The right answer is "It removed some of the rights of colonists to govern themselves. "

The Dominion of New England in America (1686–89) was an administrative union of English colonies covering New England and the Mid-Atlantic Colonies (except for the Colony of Pennsylvania). Its political structure represented centralized control similar to the model used by the Spanish monarchy through the Viceroyalty of New Spain. The dominion was unacceptable to most colonists because they deeply resented being stripped of their rights and having their colonial charters revoked.
