Answer:

people from the Mayflower

Step-by-step explanation:

The Mayflower people were the first settlers to create modern correctional institutions, in addition to being the first colony to establish a type of government that most closely resembles what we have today. This made the Mayflower colony a major advance in world democracy, laying the foundations for the entire political and judicial system that the United States currently has.
