Answer:

Enlightenment changed people's ideas about government.  People questioned: Are people born with special rights that must be respected?

Should citizens have more say in what their govt. does?

Does the people have the right to overthrow an unjust govt?

Explanation:

The Glorious Revolution ended the Dominion of New England in 1689

English Bill of Rights provided a model or representative govt.

Both ideas supported the idea that citizens have rights that the govt. must respect.

<u>Enlightenment ideas:</u>

Locke argued people are born with <u>natural rights</u>

Locke and Rousseau wrote that the govt. was based on <u>social contracts</u> with citizens.

Montesquieu supported <u>separation of powers</u> between different branches in a representative  govt.

Voltaire argued for <u>religious tolerance</u> of all faiths.
