The Mayflower Compact, signed in 1620 by the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower, established a rudimentary form of self-government and the principle of majority rule. This early example of social contract theory influenced the Founding Fathers by demonstrating the importance of collective decision-making and consent of the governed. Its emphasis on governance based on mutual agreement laid foundational ideas for democratic principles in the U.S. Constitution, reinforcing the notion that government derives its power from the consent of the people.
