The key foreign policy issues that America had to face during the 1800´s were: to protect United States ships; and to deal with pirates.
The Bills of Rights is the part of the Constitution that protects individual rights. It is composed of the first 10 amendments which were written by the founding fathers in order to ensure citizens of the U.S. were guaranteed the freedoms they valued so much and were protected from the oppressive British government they overcame with their victory in the Revolutionary War.
The 1st Amendment guarantees the right of freedom of speech, freedom to choose and practice any religion, and freedom of the press to research and report on any issue.
The 2nd Amendment is the Right to Bare Arms. Which means exactly, the right to purchase, own and carry guns.
The 3rd Amendment is kind of funny to think about now but back in the 1700's it was relevant. It was the right to refuse to quarter soldiers. This meant you wouldn't have to keep soldiers in your home and feed them.
The 4th Amendment is protection against illegal search and seizure which means the police need probable cause or a court order before they can go through your property.
The 5th is the right to remain silent. You don't have to say anything if it will incriminate you. The 6th is the right to a speedy trial, and the 7th says for that trial you have the right to a jury. The 8th Amendment protects us from cruel and unusual punishment.
The 9th Amendment says people have more right then just these previous 8, like the right to pursuit happiness, education and get married to who you choose.
The 10th Amendment says that states have rights too, and this indirectly results in further rights for the individuals of any given state.
The Bills of Rights is essentially a list of individual rights that was added to the Constitution and is still an extremely significant factor in what makes Americans protected, expressive and diverse.
