Can anyone give me a brief summary of influences that preceded the founding of the united states?

The development of the mayflower compact(first official document that mentions communal governing), the failure of Britain to maintain salutary neglect, the taxation without representation imposed on America by Britain, and Benjamin franklin who spoke of the unification of the New England colonies.
