Our Political Beginnings American Government

W.A.L.T. Evaluate the influences that English government had on the origins of the U.S. government.

The British Influence The beginnings of the United States can be traced to the 1500’s when European explorers began to arrive in greater numbers. The English set up the 13 colonies. They brought with them a political system that had been developing for centuries in England. They also brought with them 3 basic ideas of government that would come to influence the U.S. more than any others.

The Three Gifts From the Brits

Ordered Government The first Americans saw a need for regulation and laws to protect individuals. Many of the offices they created are still with us today: sheriff, justice of the peace, and counties.

Limited Government The government should be restricted in what it is allowed to do. Every individual has certain rights that they are born with that cannot be taken away.

Representative Government The government should serve the will of the people. The people should have a say in what the government does. “a government of, by, and for the people”

The Three Documents From the Brits

The Magna Carta A group of barons forced King John to sign the Magna Carta in 1215. They wanted protection against arbitrary acts by the king. Guaranteed the rights of trial by jury, due process. The King’s power was no longer absolute.

The Petition of Right After the signing of the Magna Carta, Parliament began to grow in power. They forced the king to sign another document. The Petition of Right: barred the King from sheltering troops in people’s homes without their consent,and from declaring martial law in times of peace The King could also no longer punish someone without a trial by a person’s peers.

The English Bill Of Rights In 1689, after years of revolution, Parliament offered the Crown to William & Mary. To prevent any further abuse of power, Parliament forced them to sign the English Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights included: A right to a fair trial Freedom from excessive bail Freedom from cruel & unusual punishment.
