Between 1763 and 1815, most of the population was made up of indentured servants, slaves, women, children, and the working class. Even so, policies were written mainly by white, male landowners. Which answer explains why this was the case? (1 point) The other groups of people did not live in cities, where policy writing took place. The other groups of people did not have any power and most did not have basic rights. The other groups of people were busy carrying out more important functions in society. The other groups of people were mainly younger people and weren't of legal age to vote.

Respuesta :

The other groups of people did not have any power and most did not have basic rights. 
This answer makes the most sense. Considering slavery was legal until the end of the Civil War it should be clear that most people did not have basic rights during this era. In addition, women were not granted the right to vote until the 20th century and there were tests and polls that limited African Americans rights to vote after the Civil War. 

Answer:

The other groups of people did not have any power and most did not have basic rights.
