Question

Why were colonial citizens able to influence the laws that governed them?

Answer 1

Answer:

The colonial citizens were able to influence the laws that governed them because they were allowed to choose and elect their own members of the legislature.

Explanation:

Colonial citizens had this advantage that they were able to choose members from their own people. They were able to make and amend their own laws.

Colonial citizens did not have this power before. After decades of tyranny and a lot of wars, certain rules were made.

Colonies were made throughout the world, countries would capture and land and make it their own without a care in the world. Whoever lived their before had no say because the people had no say in it. People who captured the lands were brutal enough to kill anyone who came in their way.
