Answer:

Representative government

Step-by-step explanation:

A representative government refers to the system in which citizens have a voice and vote in what the government will and will not do. Thus, the colonists considered it was significant for all citizens to have a say in the choices made by the government, and to appoint the officials who would make those decisions.
