Answer:

Modeled after the English Parliament, the General Assembly was established in 1619. In 1643 it became the House of Burgesses. Members would meet at least once a year with their royal governor to decide local laws and determine local taxation.

Explanation:

The House of Burgesses was important because it was the first legislative and democratic government in America. The House of Burgesses played a very important role in the American Revolutionary War, as well as in the creation of an organised, democratic government for the newly created America.
