The correct chronological order of these documents is as follows:

1. Magna Carta (1215) 2. Mayflower Compact (1620) 3. Declaration of Independence (1776) 4. Articles of Confederation (ratified in 1781) 5. U.S. Constitution (ratified in 1788) 6. U.S. Bill of Rights (ratified in 1791)

Extra: These documents are significant in the context of both British and American history.

- The Magna Carta, created in 1215, was a pivotal moment for the constitutional law in England and laid down the principle that everyone, including the king, was subject to the law. - The Mayflower Compact was a social contract signed in 1620 by the Pilgrims seeking religious freedom, who agreed on a form of self-government when they arrived in America. - The Declaration of Independence, adopted in 1776, announced the thirteen American colonies' separation from British rule and expressed fundamental democratic principles. - The Articles of Confederation, ratified in 1781, served as the first constitution of the United States, establishing a loose confederation of states with a weak central government. - The U.S. Constitution, which replaced the Articles of Confederation and was ratified in 1788, established the system of federal government that is still in use today in the United States. - The U.S. Bill of Rights is the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1791, guaranteeing certain fundamental rights and protections to American citizens.
