Can you interpret or put this question into simpler words? "Give three examples that illustrate...?"

"Give three examples that illustrate democratic principles established by governments."

It's a DBQ so there's a chart that shows "Insitution/Year" and in the other column "significance"

Some examples of things shown in "Insitution/Year" are: virginia House of Burgesses, New England Town Meetings, and Mayflower Compact.

I don't get the question at all. Can you just translate the queestion into simpler terms? I don't want the answer though.

Thanks.

Are you filling in the table, then? If so, you would enter the important "first" that each of these represents for American democracy.



If those are merely samples, then you'll have to come up with examples of "firsts" -- what are the big ideas of democracy and where were they first demonstrated? (in America?)



If it's not due tomorrow, ask your teacher for clarification.
