Explain why the Pilgrims’ government came about and why its existence was important. (4 points) write it shortly, like 1-2 sentences please. And in 7th grader words too.

Answer 1

The Pilgrims created their government, known as the Mayflower Compact, because they needed rules to keep order in their new colony, since they landed outside of their original territory. This government was important because it helped the Pilgrims work together and make decisions fairly, laying the groundwork for self-governance in America.
