Answer 1

Here you have the 4 sentences as required:

• While colonists influenced the government of England through ideologies (such as the idea that government should have limited powers on people, granting them the rights to life, liberty and property), people nowadays can influence the U.S. government via political parties that provide people with alternative approaches on how a government should be run.

• Over time, representative government led by a Prime Minister came to control and replace the king as the main source of power in England, and nowadays, people can influence the U.S. government via elections, where citizens have the power to vote for their leaders.

• Another form in which England was influenced is with the idea of the rule of law: both government and the ones governed  must obey the law that limits the  powers of government and, this idea also influenced today's U.S government in that people can rely on laws that are publicly issued, equally enforced, and independently adjudicated.

• Another form of influence is that, in 1258, the nobles forced the King  John to create a Parliament, that is, the legislative branch of the English  government which, in turn, has two houses that divided power and, so does the current U.S government by dividing his powers in three branches (executive, legislative and judicial).
