Very Interesting Historiographical choices

I think the historiographical perspectives introduced came from a wide range of speakers and backgrounds. And because many of the written treaties were provided in English or French and had subjective language it let me contextualize my interpretations of the sources, accounting for any oversights I may have had. The themes really blended into each other
