The Fundamental Orders of 1638-1639, established in Connecticut, differed from the Massachusetts Bay Colony's governing framework primarily in their emphasis on a more democratic structure and broader suffrage. While Massachusetts had a more theocratic approach, prioritizing church membership for voting rights, the Fundamental Orders allowed non-church members to participate in governance. Additionally, the Orders outlined a written constitution that explicitly defined the powers of government, whereas Massachusetts relied more on unwritten traditions and colonial charters. This made Connecticut's system more progressive for its time, promoting a greater separation between church and state.
