The Constitution of the United States was influenced by many historical documents and ideas. Among the options you've provided, **Lord Baltimore** (specifically, the figure associated with the early Maryland colony and its establishment of religious tolerance) had a much less direct impact on the framing of the U.S. Constitution compared to the other options listed.
- **Magna Carta (1215)**: This document established the principle that everyone, including the king, is subject to the law and has had a lasting influence on constitutional law.
- **English Bill of Rights (1689)**: This laid out certain rights for citizens and set limits on the powers of the monarch, influencing American ideas about governance and civil liberties.
- **Articles of Confederation (1781)**: While it predated the Constitution and was ultimately replaced by it, the Articles provided important lessons about the weaknesses in a loose confederation of states and highlighted the need for a stronger federal government.
In summary, while Lord Baltimore contributed to early American governance in the Maryland colony, he did not have a significant influence on the creation of the U.S. Constitution itself, making him the correct choice in this context.
