Question

The Mayflower Compact was a general statement in favor of majority rule

Answer 1

Answer:

a written constitution that served as the basis of government

Explanation:

The Fundamental Orders of Connecticut was the first written constitution in the country and served as a basis for establishing the government in the future. This was the first document that organized an American government giving power to free men and governed the king's concepts of monarchy and sovereignty, stating that the people were the sovereign of their own territory.

This document was extremely important for the creation of the current democratic bases, in addition to showing a model of constitution that would be adopted after the American revolution.
