directions: determine the impact that the historical documents had.
chart with column header \impact on the colonists views of government\

• using the excerpt, determine the impact that the magna carta had on the colonists’ views of government.
• using the excerpt, determine the impact that the english bill of rights had on the colonists’ views of government.

Explanation:

Answer:

(For Magna Carta) The Magna Carta influenced colonists to believe in limited government, rule of law, and that even rulers are subject to legal constraints, shaping their view that government should respect individual rights (like due process) and not be arbitrary.
(For English Bill of Rights) The English Bill of Rights led colonists to value rights like freedom from cruel punishment, protection against excessive bail, and the idea that government power is limited by the rights of the people, reinforcing beliefs in representative government and individual liberties that guide government authority.

(Note: Since the original problem mentions "using the excerpt" which isn't provided, these are standard historical impacts. If the excerpt had specific details, the answer would align with that, but this is the general impact for these documents on colonial views of government.)
