Answer:

The correct answer is D) The Community

Step-by-step explanation:

William Bradford was an early English Puritan Settler who came to the New World aboard the famous Mayflower.

When he reached the new world, the settlers explored the land and decided to build a town in modern-day downtown Plymouth.

This eventually became the Plymouth colony of which he eventually became the governor. When he came to power, the land was mostly owned by the community, as they were still small in number and governance was still an effort of all people involved.
