Answer:

In order to protect states' rights, the Articles set strict limits on congressional authority. Under the Articles, the states, not Congress had the power to tax. Congress could raise money only by asking the states for funds, borrowing from foreign governments, and selling western lands.

The American colonists were eager to keep the Native American nations out of the mix when it came to the war with the British.  The Native Americans could have looked at this as an opportunity to cause trouble for the white colonists and take advantage of the situation.  Or the colonists could have looked at the Native American nations as potential allies and made promises to them if they assisted in the war effort.  But the colonists appealed to native nations with a message of friendship -- not asking them to join in war against Britain, but also that they not act against the colonists' cause.  

The quoted speech, by the way, was addressed to these Native American nations:  <span>Mohawks, Oneidas, Tusscaroras, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senekas.</span>

When do historians use a timeline instead of a calendar?
Arlecino [84]
Historians use both the timeline and the calendar, but they are used for different purposes. Calendar is used by historians for marking specific important dates, like the date of birth or the date of death. Timeline is mostly used to describe an incident that has occurred over a period of time. This occurrence could have started in one era and ended in another. These kind of incidents that occur over a longer time are mostly depicted by timeline. For example the reign of a ruler can be depicted by a timeline by any historian.
