The figurative language used in the passage above is a symbolism as well as a metaphor for the Law of Peace which now extended to all the nations of the Iroquois. One could say that it also symbolized the protection that peace affords under the Iroquois Constitution that has been extended to all members of the Iroquois Nations. See more explanation below.
<h3>Further explanation with regard to the above?</h3>
The Iroquois constitution was the outcome of the Confederacy of the Five Nations, which included the
- Mohawk,
- Onondaga,
- Seneca,
- Oneida, and
- Cayuga Native American tribes.
It was one of the first systems of governance in North America. The Great Tree of Peace was one of their most important traditions.
The tree itself represented the five nations' understanding and maintenance of peace (On the words of The Covenant:
"The tree signifies law and the law is peace among all nations"). The branches, on the other hand, were viewed as the security that peace provided to all Confederacy members ("The branches of this tree signify shelter, giving each individual protection and security under the law. These branches are tended by those among the people who are men").
