The colonists aboard the Mayflower agreed to combine themselves into a "civil body politic" through the Mayflower Compact. This agreement established a framework for self-governance and mutual support, emphasizing the importance of creating laws for the good of the colony. It marked a significant step towards democratic governance in the New World.
The plan of government was called the Mayflower Compact. The colonist realized they needed rules to govern themselves if they were to survive the new land. They drew up a written plan for government. Forty-one of the men aboard signed the Mayflower Compact. The Mayflower Compact established a tradition of direct democracy.
The Constitution that some Puritan colonists wrote to govern themselves is known as the Mayflower Compact. Signed in 1620 by the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower, it established a form of self-government and a social contract among the settlers, outlining their commitment to create a civil body politic for their new colony. The Mayflower Compact is considered a foundational document for American democracy.
