Answer:

What charter? Is it a specific charter?

Step-by-step explanation:

If you mean a charter in general, then a charter is a written document that essentially outlines the rights of a group of people or even a colony. It gave people the opportunity to establish a settlement away from the crown in pursuit of different interests; for example, freedom from religious persecution.
