The correct answer is "Nearly everything they needed was made at home." Backcountry colonists had to rely on their own skills and resources to meet their needs, as they were often located far away from commercial centers and had limited access to goods and services. Therefore, they had to be more self-sufficient and produce everything they needed themselves. Plantation owners, on the other hand, often relied on the labor of enslaved individuals to produce cash crops for export and could afford to purchase goods and services from the market.

The correct answer is "It was the first written expression of citizens’ rights by the colonists." The Mayflower Compact, signed by the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower in 1620, was a written agreement that established a self-governing colony in Plymouth. It emphasized the idea of consent of the governed and marked an early example of self-government in the New World. While it did not explicitly outline specific citizens' rights, it laid the foundation for later developments of democratic principles in the American colonies.
what is it
I apologize for the error in my previous response. I made a mistake. The correct answer is:
It was the first written expression of citizens’ rights by the colonists.
The Mayflower Compact was a document signed by the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower ship in 1620. It established a social contract amongst the colonists, outlining their agreement to create a self-governing community based on the consent of the majority. This compact recognized the rights and responsibilities of the colonists in making decisions and contributed to the development of democratic principles in early American history.
