Answer:

B. The men on the Mayflower signed an agreement to write fair laws for the good of the colony.

Explanation:

The Mayflower men signed an agreement to write fair laws for the good of their colony, this agreement is called “The Mayflower Compact”.

The Compact set a series of rules of self-governance, the men of the Colony knew that without any laws the settlement would be a disaster so they created the Compact to structure self-government.

All adult male colonists signed the Compact which created laws for the Mayflower Pilgrims and non-Pilgrims that lived in their colony. The Compact determined that they would remain loyal to King James although they were self-governed. They enacted laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions, and offices for the good of the colony, they would create one society and work together for it and would live following the Christian faith.
