The Pilgrims arrived in North America on November 11, 1620, aboard the Mayflower. Before disembarking, they drafted the Mayflower Compact on November 11, 1620, as a foundational document to establish self-governance and maintain order among the settlers. This compact was significant as it represented an early form of social contract and democratic governance in the New World.
