Answer:

Gold,God, Glory ( 3 G's )

Explanation:

The motivations for the first wave of colonial expansion can be summed up as God, Gold, and Glory: God, because missionaries felt it was their moral duty to spread Christianity, and they believed a higher power would reward them for saving the souls of colonial subjects; gold, because colonizers would exploit resources of other countries in order to bolster their own economies; and glory, since European nations would often compete with one another over the glory of attaining the greatest number of colonies.

Sam Houston made treaties with the Native Americans, what did the treaties entail?
cricket20 [7]

In an effort to prevent any alliances between the Cherokee Indians and the Mexicans, the Federal Government sent Sam Houston and John Forbes to the territories occupied by the Native Americans in order to negotiate the boundaries in which they could peacefully settle. These negotiations ended with a treaty on February 23, 1836. However, this document was rejected by the Senate because it considered the consultation had exceeded its powers by offering land grants to the Cherokees. Houston decided to disregard this and maintained the kept the treaty made with the Indians. However, President Mirabeau B. Lamar would ultimately agree with the Senate's interpretations and leave the treaty without effect.
