Did the creeks adopt european culture? and who are important creek leaders and what did they do?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

When Europeans arrived on the North American continent, the Creek Indians occupied major portions of what are now the states of Alabama and Georgia. James Adair, a trader who dealt with the Creeks for three decades, described them in 1770 as the most powerful Indian nation known to the English. They were actually not so much a nation as a confederacy that welcomed new member tribes, even those of a different linguistic and cultural background. Those who joined blended their own traditions into the basic Creek governmental and social structure.

In the early 1830s, the Creek population was about 22,000. Forced relocation to Indian Territory in what is now Oklahoma took a terrible toll, and by 1839 the population had decreased to 13,500. The Civil War further decimated the Creek people, reducing the number to 10,000 by 1867. In 1990 their population of 43,550 placed them tenth among Native American tribes.

The new jersey plan proposed to keep a unicameral legislature with equal representation for each state.
jonny [76]
The answer is True.

When creating the legislative branch, representation was an issue that was argued over constantly. The small states, like New Jersey, wanted all states to have the same representation regardless of their states population. However, big states like Virginia wanted states with more population to have more power. These two sides come to a compromise (called the Connecticut Compromise) which states that the amount of representatives in the House will be based on population while every state will have 2 senators in the Senate.
