What was a major goal of the farmers of the constitution as stated in the preamble
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The Preamble of the U.S. Constitution—the document’s famous first fifty-two words— introduces everything that is to follow in the Constitution’s seven articles and twenty-seven amendments. It proclaims who is adopting this Constitution: “We the People of the United States.” It describes why it is being adopted—the purposes behind the enactment of America’s charter of government. And it describes what is being adopted: “this Constitution”—a single authoritative written text to serve as fundamental law of the land. Written constitutionalism was a distinctively American innovation, and one that the framing generation considered the new nation’s greatest contribution to the science of government.

What did the Treaty of New York, Treaty of Fort Jackson, and Treaty of Indian Springs have in common? The Creeks gave up land in
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The Creeks gave up land in exchange for money and protection, but the US government did little to stop settlers from pushing west.

Explanation:

The fight for land and belonging has been a constant source of discontentment between the Native Indians and the American government. The Creeks were one such native people who, like every other Native Indian, had to suffer at the hands of the United States government and try to find peaceful ways for them to have their own reservations.

But while there are numerous wars fought between the two, there are also numerous treaties signed to try to maintain peace and cordial relations. The <u>Treaty of New York (1790), the Treaty of Fort Jackson (1814), and the Treaty of Indian Springs (1825)</u> were some of the treaties signed between the two parties. And<u> one common factor of these treaties is that the Creeks were made to cede their lands in exchange for some money and protection from the government</u>. But while the Native Indians kept their part of the agreement, the<u> U. S. Government did not do much to keep their part and did not stop the flow of settlers</u> in the areas of the Native Indians.
