Answer: Establish rights that belong to the people & Protect the people from the government

Explanation: The Bill of Rights was made a compromise to the signing of the constitution. Originally the constitution gives the government too much power, so several states argued against it. This was compromised by the creation of the Bill of Rights, a list of rights given to the people that the government cant work around. These rights protected the people from their government while also giving them written rights that couldn't be twisted.
