Answer:

C. The mayflower compact

Step-by-step explanation:

The mayflower compact was a set of agreement that created by the settlers of Plymouth Colony. They made this agreement when they're still on the Mayflower ships heading out to the colonial territory.

In that agreement, they're agree that they will not run their settlement based on the system created by British government.

They agree that their settlement will be run on a representative democracy, where the citizens can have the power to be involved in the government by selecting a government representatives.
