On the "Mayflower Compact"
Mayflower Compact to the name of God, Amen. We, the undersigned is blessed by God of Great Britain, France and Ireland king - a defender of faith and the Church's obedient subjects of His Majesty King James.
Future generations on the "Mayflower Compact" explanation can be described as varied, dazzling. Or conservative, or radical, different passions, partisan and ideological as it is applied on a different color. Thus, as the years go by, "Mayflower Compact" gradually became the founding legends and myths about its exposure to these imaginary people like Hobbes called the "Dark Kingdom", it missed the knowledge of their true colors . However, there are some very meaningful interpretation, one of which is named McLaughlin (Andrew C. MaLaughlin) of the well-known scholar in the 20th century's 30's: In his view, "but Mayflower Compact a very old "Law of the Sea" Basically, the "Mayflower Compact" also has a lot of doubts, but it's position in American history is beyond question, and even worldwide are from a legal model.

The basis of the Mayflower and the founding of the United States
Based on the founding of the United States, which is the most important is the religious and commercial. Religion on the basis of the United States, Germany and the United States, Frank Bancroft, the father of history are that, Calvin is the real father of the United States. The theoretical basis of course is based on the early American Colonies of New England Puritanism and religious background, as this book vividly described. Tocqueville is that the Calvinist Puritanism is not only a religious theory, but also a political theory, but one of the most substantial of the importance of Jewish - Christian tradition as well as some law which embodied the concept of democracy ideas, habits and operating procedures. In addition to this religious motivation, business is also a very important factor. To these colonial groups on the Mayflower, they went to the boundary of North America Virginia after reclamation was originally a London company called "the Virginia Company," the authority, and signed with them a strict and detailed economic peace treaty provides for mutual rights and obligations. However, when the passengers arrived in North America, do not know that was intentional or not, the ship Mayflower sailed out of the boundaries of Virginia, the accident caused the passengers on board had an argument and riots. Because, fled to the Netherlands on board not only has the original Puritan piety Brighton, but there are some so-called "strangers", by contrast, the main motivation for them to come to North America to discuss food to eat, as the pursuit of religion, is very cold, intellectual and moral standards and those who did not was removed from the Netherlands to the British North America, Puritans or "pilgrims" who. Obviously, because this new situation, they had the "Virginia Company" by the peace treaty signed into question the effectiveness, because they were out of position has deviated from the established destination for hundreds of miles. In addition, some of the ship is not religious pursuit of the "stranger" is the atomic individual, not part of the community come from the Netherlands, the batch of pilgrimage groups, which are not subject to the refuge in the Dutch and the British religious fellowship About the jurisdiction of customary law. That is, when the Mayflower sailed to North America is coming soon, they face the danger of disintegration, because both the United Kingdom "Virginia Company" economic peace between, or with God about law between religious traditions and habits specification is no longer effective. Or, they said in a Hobbesian state of nature. However, after landing their Zuoniaoshousan if they can not form a close community in order to tide over the difficulties, they can not in cold, barren of the North American continent to survive. So, after repeated discussions and consultations, and solemn, they signed a cabin in the Convention, namely, the alleged descendants of the "Mayflower Compact", and thus formed a secular civil and political body, the United States the development of the first piece of government solid foundation.
