Answer:

Deganawida "The great peacemaker" came to the Five Nations that were constantly in belligerence, with a message he had received from The Creator that contained the principles of peace, equality, respect, love and justice.

He unified the nations as in a "Communal House" where each had its own fire. In the center - Onondaga Territory - The Great Peace Tree was planted, its branches represented the homes in the Confederate nations and its roots extended to the four cardinal points, invited other peoples to take refuge in it.

I think the authors purpose was to show how they all came together and that the confederacy is what kept them together kinda like how a trees roots keep it in the ground in a storm

Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.

ludmilkaskok [199]

We planned to take a trip to Asia in three years or less.

The modifier "in three years or less" was misplaced.

A misplaced modifier is a word or phrase which is separated from the subject it modifies, thus making the sentence syntactically incorrect as well as illogical: I found the stained man's hankerchief.

A squinting modifier creates ambiguity in a sentence through its placement, by making it unclear which part it modifies (the one that comes before it or the one that comes after it): Combing your hair softly detangles it.

A dangling modifier gives an information without clearly stating its subject in the sentence. It often consists of "having + past participle" or "being + past participle" constructions, like: Being tired after the show, going straight home was the best plan.
