Answer 2

The correct answer is C) to organize themselves, guarantee a long life for the colony, and achieve their goals in setting up the colony.

The reason why the Pilgrims created the Mayflower Compact was to organize themselves, guarantee a long life for the colony, and achieve their goals in setting up the colony.

The Pilgrims that traveled in the Mayflower ship created a set of rules that could establish the basic structure of a society. It was signed on November 11, 1620, and created the first laws for Pilgrims and non-Pilgrims(merchants, indentured servants, and craftsmen). The laws reaffirmed loyalty to King James of England, they accepted Christianity and would work for the benefit of the colony.
