And we do desire to make known to our subjects who have settled there and who will in the future set up residence there that although they live in climates infinitely far away, we are always present to them by the reach of our power and our diligence in suc-coring them.
Saying although they are far away they will still control them

rules to maintain the teaching of the Roman Catholic Apostolic Church
France wants to develop rules coming from the Roman Catholic Apostolic Church
-
The Directors of the Company of the Indies having informed us that the Province and Colony of Louisiana has been firmly established by a great num-ber of our subjects who make use of Black slaves to cultivate their lands
France is aware of how many Black slaves that were being used in Louisianna
-
The original Code Nair was issued by French king Louis XIV in 1685 to govern slavery in these islands.
The code came out way later then when they actually started slave trading

greater fear to the English reporting they saw 200.
Their plan to control the perception of others
-
a group of proprietors received a royal grant to establish the colony of South Carolina.
Even though not British land at the time they had a royal grant to establish a colony
-
There is a small party of English out after them, and the most potent Kingdome of the Indians armed by us and continually in pursuit of them. . . . and if they can make good wine hear, which they have great hopes of, and this year will be the time of tryall which if it hits no doubt but the place will flourish exceedingly, but if the vines do not prosper I question whither it will ever be any great place of trade. . . .
Sounds like the relationship between British colonists and neighboring Native nations was not good at least from the British side.

so that no man is to be molested or called in question for matters of Religious Concern; but every one to be obedient to the Civil Government, worshipping God after their own way.
This new found land hasn't decided what religion will rule yet.

Thou art not as bold nor as stout as we, because when thou goest on a voyage thou canst not carry upon thy shoulders thy buildings and thy edifices.
Saying that no one is as bold or as stout as his people, with the Indian way of life, one can pick up and move home when they please.

I am greatly astonished that the French have so little cleverness, as they seem to exhibit in the matter of which thou hast just told me on their behalf, in the effort to persuade us to convert our poles, our barks, and our wigwams into those houses of stone and of wood which are tall and lofty, according to their account, as these trees.
Just by the beginning of the way that the Native American responds to the French, makes him seem very prideful of his own people.
-
Thou reproachest us, very inappropriately, that our country is a little hell in contrast with France, which thou comparest to a terrestrial paradise, inasmuch as it yields thee, so thou safest, every kind of provision in abundance. Thou sayest of us also that we are the most miserable and most unhappy of all men, living without religion, without manners, without honour, without social order, and, in a word, without any rules, like the beasts in our woods and our forests, lacking bread, wine, and a thousand other comforts which thou hast in superfluity in Europe.
Recognizing the way that the French and Europeans view Native American people and is disagreeing with it.

We know that the seasons in the underworld are different from ours, because the water in the springs is always warmer in winter and cooler in summer than the outer air.
Could be talking about the Underworld representing the other side of the world from were the cherokee were, when it stated that the underworld had opposite seasons then what the cherokee people had.
-
When the animals above saw this, they were afraid that the whole world would be mountains, so they called him back, but the Cherokee country remains full of mountains to this day.
Saying that the Great Buzzard flew through the cherokee country creating valleys and mountains just by the way he flew around early earth.

The earth is a great island floating in a sea of water, and suspended at each of the four cardinal points by a cord hanging down from the sky vault, which is of solid rock. When the world grows old and worn out, the people will die and the cords will break and let the earth sink down into the ocean, and all will be water again. The Indians are afraid of this.
The Cherokee Indians are afraid and believe that the world is going to get sunken under water because of the amount of people who die over time as the earth gets older. This is an interesting creation theory as it is obvious that their are so many tribes with so many different creation belief stories.

Bald Eagle called to Coyote who happened to be going by and said to him, “Do you see that woman?” Try her first!”
I think that the Bald Eagle god told the cayote to have intercoarse with a women before the first man of the world did, eventually letting the man and women live together.
-
the Bald Eagle was the chief of the animals. He saw the world was incomplete and decided to make some human beings. So he took some clay and modeled the figure of a man and laid him on the ground.
The Salinan Indians believed that the Bald Eagle was the creator of man and women as if it is a sort of animal god of humans on earth.

Native peoples in the Southwest began constructing these highly defensible cliff dwellings
These highly defensible cliff dwellings could be considered highly defensible due to the tall outside walls of the dwellings. Also the placement, being underneath a cliff, gives enemies no way of penetrating from the back.
-
Cliff Palace had 23 kivas and 150 rooms housing a population of approximately 100 people; the number of rooms and large population has led scholars to believe that this complex may have been the center of a larger polity that included surrounding communities.
There was 150 rooms built inside of a castle type of structure underneath a cliff in the Mesa Verde National Cliff Palace. The structure makes a different and clustered way of life for those living in 1190-1300 CE.

I myself have heard the Spaniards themselves (who dare not assume the Confidence to deny the good Nature in them) declare, that there was nothing wanting in them for the acquisition of eternal grace,
Another quick and subtle dig at the Native American people coming from the Spanish once again. When one doesn't understand something they usually criticize them.
-
nd behave themselves very patiently, submissively and quietly towards the Spaniards, to whom they are subservient and subject; so that finally they live without the least thirst after revenge, laying aside all litigiousness, Commotion and hatred…
Funny to see the Spaniards point of view on how the Native Americans reacted to being taken over and controlled by newcomers. The spaniards did not give the Native American people enough humanity as they conquered their lands.
