It Was Written By The Colonists To Ask The King To Protect Their Rights And To Tell Him They Wanted Peace. It Was Rejected By The King.

Explanation: The Olive Branch petition was a petition adopted by the continental congress to the British king which was adopted on July 5,1775 and was signed three days later.

The purpose of the petition was to avoid the war between the thirteen American colonies and the British.This petition affirmed the American loyalty to the Great Britain and asked the King George III to protect the rights of colonists.

How did the Magna Carta influence the United States Bill of Rights?
anyanavicka [17]
<span>The Magna was a big influence of the Constitution of the United States of America as well as its individual states.  The influence it has was formed by Americans who lived in the 18th Century who believe the Magna Carta symbolized the people’s rights against a tyrannical ruler. This has shaped American’s attitude of distrust of strong political power. Due to this political point of view most of the state constitutions incorporated declarations of rights intended to ensure a list of protections and immunities for individual citizens from the state government. The United States also adopted the Bill of Rights because of this political view.</span>
