• wanted to create a new political system in which there was no king

• yearned to share their religious beliefs with the Native Americans

• wanted to escape religious persecution

The Mayflower Compact, signed by the Pilgrims in 1620, was significant because it -

• stated that the Pilgrims were no longer a part of the British Empire

• granted equal rights to Native Americans that lived alongside the Pilgrims

• was a social contract that established a form of self-government

• was a treaty that established peace between the Native Americans and colonists for the next 20 years
