By the conclusion of the Revolutionary War, the balance of power in North America had shifted away from the Native Americans and toward white Americans. British power continued on in Canada, but the French were wholly absent as a regional force, so Native Americans could no longer negotiate between the great powers.
The League of Nations was a international organization founded after the Paris Peace Conference, 1919. The League's goals included disarmament, preventing war through collective security, settling disputes between countries through negotiation diplomacy and improving global welfare.

From the later 17th century, the Native American population dropped drastically due to warfare and disease. Settlers regularly waged war against Native American tribes in order to place more land under their control and push Native Americans away from their settlements. Additionally (and probably more drastic), Native Americans had not developed the same immunities Europeans had to infectious diseases. Prior to settling in North and South America, Europeans lived in cities rife with disease and filth. While this contributed to a substantially shorter lifespan for Europeans relative to people in more sanitary living conditions, it also led to increased immunity to diseases. Europeans then came to the Western Hemisphere with their diseases, which were then spread (overtly and indirectly) to Native Americans whose more sanitary lifestyle resulted in weaker immunity.
Peaceful life in society is dependent on the active and positive participation of different members of a community. The government, the community and the individual need to fulfill their responsibilities towards one another. The government has the duty to provide basic services to society, such as safety, public education, urban planning, and access to opportunities for development. The community has responsibilities that are shared among its members, such as making good use of public resources and common areas. If you, as an individual, fulfill your duties towards your fellow citizens, the whole country benefits.
There are some things that you can do in your own life to help this partnership. For example, acquiring basic education is important not only for you, but for the well-being of the community. Education will make you qualified to participate in the workforce, and it would also help you learn the responsibilities of citizenship. You should also abide by the rules and laws of your community, as it makes the coexistence of different members of the community more harmonious. Finally, you can get involved in activities that benefit your community, such as volunteering with a charity or an NGO.
