Explanation:

The Mayflower Compact was an agreement by the Pilgrims to self - govern. It established a civil body politic and the power to make just and equal laws for the common good of the colony, indicating local self - government by consent. It did not show complete loyalty to King James without self - rule, did not rely on royal governors for all laws, and the separation of church and state was not the main focus.

Answer:

The establishment of locally based government by consent
