Mayflower compact?? please read if u nknow anything about it.?
Significance of the Mayflower Compact
After suffering years of persecution in England and spending difficult years of exile in the Netherlands, the Pilgrims wanted to establish their colony on the biblical principles they suffered for in Europe. Before they set foot on land, they drew up this covenant with God. They feared launching their colony until there was a recognition of God's sovereignty and their collective need to obey Him.
Reply:The compact didn't initially inpact the 13 colonies just the plymouth settlement. However, it was the first form of government established in America and eventually would be a starting block for the constitution.
