One of the most remarkable diplomatic turning points in American history, was the Treaty of Holston, signed in 1791, between the United States Government and the Cherokee, signed on July 2nd, and proclaimed on February 7th, 1792. The American political leader behind this achievement was William Blount, who negotiated and signed this Treaty.
This is an important Treaty, because its terms aimed to satisfy both parties' interests, such as prosecution to those who commited crimes against the Cherokees and getting compensation for the lands taken by the U.S. On the American side. This treaty stablished certain peace in the relationships, and allowed them to have more territorial control as well as control over the trade. Certainly, it strenghtened the American position, being more beneficial for them.
