Answer:
The House of Burgesses was the first legislative assembly in the American colonies.
Explanation:
The House of Burgesses was created because the Virginia Company had decided to cancel martial law and form a legislative assembly. This was announced in April 1619 when Governor George Yeardley arrived in Virginia from England.
Members of the House of Burgesses must meet at least once a year with their governor to make decisions about local laws and establish local taxation.
