Which of those documents were utilized when forming the US government?

<h2> ALL OF THE ABOVE</h2>

I'll say a word about each.

  • Declaration of Independence:  This 1776 writing, penned mostly by Thomas Jefferson, listed grievances against the British king, George III.  The natural rights of man were being infringed upon, and the US Constitution later would set out to protect those rights.
  • Magna Carta:  The Magna Carta, or "Great Charter," affirmed that everyone is subject to the law -- even the king.  It was an agreement between King John and the nobility in 1215, but provided instrumental founding principles for the wider establishment of rights for all citizens in the centuries following -- including the rights guaranteed in the Constitution of the United States.
  • English Bill of Rights:  In England in 1688, the Glorious Revolution  deposed King James II and replaced him with his daughter Mary and her husband William of Orange, the Stadholder (leader) of the Dutch Republic. James II had tried to take back power away from Parliament. William and Mary were willing to sign the Bill of Rights as they came into the rulership of England, which guaranteed parliamentary rights that needed to be respected by the monarchs. The US Constitution would also limit the rights of the Executive Branch by assigning equal authority to the Legislative Branch.
  • Petition of Right:  The Petition of Right is a constitutional document from 1628, which established restrictions on the king's power, in the wake of disputes between between Parliament and King Charles I over the execution of the Thirty Years' War.  According to the Online Library of Liberty, was one of the sources "the colonists turned as the documentary evidence of the fundamental rights and liberties of all Englishmen, whether they resided in the home-land or in the English communities of America."

The first government of the United States was chaired by George Washington and relied on the following documents:

Act of Declaration of Independence of the United States of 1776 (Declaration of Independence) and

Constitution of the United States of 1787.

The English Bill of Rights (1689) and Petition of Rights (1628) are important English documents that were very much taken into account in the drafting of the Preamble to the Declaration of Independence Act of the United States and in amendments to the Constitution of the United States. United States, they were not sustenance of the conformation of the first government of the United States.

Magna Carta is a letter granted by John I of England at Runnymede, near Windsor, on June 15, 1215, which at the time of the incipient English Parliament was lost but parliamentarians said that this document had functioned as England's constitution in times past and they assured that the rights of citizens were guaranteed in the face of abuses of the King's authority.

In Victorian times studies were carried out on the Magna Carta and it was discovered that in those times guarantees were given on the rights of the nobles only and not of the citizens.

The Constitution of the United States is conceptually a Magna Carta but does not bear its name.

The railroads had a much greater Impact on America than the canals and steamboats, as these allowed you to cross the country much, much quicker. This also allowed food, mainly cattle to be transported, without the flesh rotting. It also had a big Impact on the Native Americans, as this went through a lot of their land. Hope this helps
