What difference in colonial policy is shown by the two passages? Spain insisted on royal control of colonies; England experimented with private control. Spain viewed indigenous populations with respect; England viewed them with paternalism. Spain was concerned with political authority; England was concerned with spreading religion. Spain had utilitarian reasons for colonization; England wanted to achieve greater glory.

china has confucianism thats everywhere in asia but it isn't really a religion.  

because it !

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
