The two principles of government that English colonists brought with them to America were limited government and representative government. Limited government meant that government powers were restricted by law, ensuring individual rights and liberties. Representative government involved elected officials making decisions on behalf of the people, allowing for greater participation in governance. These principles laid the foundation for American democratic ideals.

I cannot recall who said it, but it meant that the American colonists would not submit to English taxes without an official government representative.
Hey
american citizens
The English colonists began to develop several forms of representative government, most notably through the establishment of colonial assemblies and town meetings. In 1619, the Virginia House of Burgesses became the first elected legislative assembly in the American colonies, allowing colonists to have a say in local governance. Additionally, New England colonies utilized town meetings where residents could directly participate in decision-making. These early forms of representative government laid the groundwork for democratic principles that would later influence the formation of the United States.
