in the backcountry

in large towns

in the backcountry

Explanation:

Around the 1800s in Georgia, following the abolition of slavery, lower demands of cotton generally worldwide, and the government focus on industrialization instead of cotton farming. Many small farmers and poor whites found themselves struggling to survive. This led many of them to work as sharecroppers and LIVED IN THE BACKCOUNTRY due to their dire economic situations.

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.
