Representative democracy and constitution.
Constitutions, particularly the US Constitution, are the bulwarks that protect citizens against the intrusion of government. They establish mechanisms by which representative forms of government are created and operate, as well as court systems.
Most early state governments were representative while the British government was a monarchy.
Representatives were elected by people
The Fundamental Orders of 1638-1639 established a framework for governance in the Connecticut Colony that emphasized the principles of popular sovereignty and representative government. They outlined a system where freemen elected a governor and a General Court, allowing citizens to have a direct say in their leadership and laws. This document is often considered one of the first written constitutions that created a government based on the consent of the governed, influencing later democratic frameworks in America. Thus, the Fundamental Orders helped lay the groundwork for the evolution of representative democracy in the New World.
In a representative democracy, the voice of the people is what guides the crucial decisions of the government. The majority voice is what guides important issues like economic development and government spending.
Religion and Virtue contributed to the growth of representative governments in the American Colonies by supporting them and not rebelling (I THINK)
Constitutions specify the ground rules and institutions that govern the government itself, including its selection, its power, and its implementation.
