The provision of the Mayflower Compact would influence later documents like the Articles of Confederation. But the statement that is not a reason why the colonists created and signed the mayflower compact is "to cut ties with the British King."

The Mayflower Compact was the document of self-government that the Pilgrims and other people signed during the travel of the Mayflower ship that brought the European people to the Americas in 1620. They intended to arrive at the North coast of Virginia, but the weather conditions sent them to Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
