1.It affirmed that the function of government was to protect individual rights.

Both of these documents establish a clear and concise government role in the free world.

They specify that the government does not exist to rule over the citizens with absolute authorit, but to protect the citizens so they can fully exercise their liberties and prevent citizens from harming each other.

2.  Its struggles with Charles I led to the English Civil War.

At that the time, the Long parliament often challenged the decisions made by Charles I, to the point where Charles can no longer mobilize the army and created financial bills as he pleased.

Because of this conflict, the Citizens of England was divided into two sides, those who supported the parliament and those who supported King Charles I. The conflict keep escalating and ended up causing the civil war.

3. Freely elected governments should impose only minimal limits on people’s actions

Jean-Jacques Rousseau believe that the government is no more than an extension of the will from the majority of the people. Because of this, he feel that governments should led the citizens have their full freedom and liberty without imposing many regulations that limit people's freedom.

4. - The American Revolution offered precedents for Latin American Revolutionaries.

- The U.S. Constitution served as a model for the French Constitution of 1791.

The american revolution showed that colonized country had the power to break free from the opression of their conqueror. Countries in latin American soon followed American footsteps to break free from the countries that colonize them.

US constitution also seen by French people as a desired model to replace the monarch system in their country. This fuel the desire that eventually lead to the French revolution.

5.to provide citizens with more rights

Before the french revolution, French was ruled by absolute monarch. Meaning that all the powers within the government fall within the hands of the nobles.

After French revolution, France became a country that ruled by democracy, Meaning that people have more rights that allow them to elect their own leaders and be involved in governmental decisions.

6. It kept the church under state control but recognized religious freedom for catholics.

Concordat of 1801  was made to clearly specify the role of the Church within the French government. Before concordat of 1801 was made, Church officials had a really high influence in government decisions. After Concordat of 1801, the french only acknowledge it as a free religious instituation and heavily limit its role in the government.

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.
