HOW DID DOCUMENTS LIKE THE MAYFLOWER COMPACT AND LEGISLATIVE BODIES LIKE THE VIRGINIA HOUSE OF BURGESSES INFLUENCE THE DEVELOPMENT OF AMERICAN GOVERNMENT?

They shaped our democracy, by making stricter laws.

Explanation:

I believe Washington said "On the prospect of the happy termination of this insurrection I sincerely congratulate you; hoping that good may result from the cloud of evils which threatened, not only the hemisphere of Massachusetts but by spreading its baneful influence, the tranquility of the Union."

I hope this helps you:)
