The Iroquois civilization formed a confederation that may have impacted the US government.

Option A

Explanation:

Bruce Johansen says Iroquois had a typical form of government. The governing Committee of Six Nations was elected by men and women of the tribes, one member from each of the six nations. Assigning the same rights to each member ensured that no one would be overpowered, which roughly had the future system of mutual control in the United States.

Due to the Iroquois influence model on the American document development, such as the article of the Confederation and the US Constitution. The Iroquois, or Haudenosaunee, is a historically powerful alliance of north-eastern Native Americans confederacy in North America. In twentieth-century, historians had pointed out that the Iroquois government system influenced the development of the US government, although the extent and nature of this influence were questioned.

In the colonial years, the French called them as Iroquois League, then Iroquois Confederacy, and the English called them five nations consisting of Mohawk, Onondaga, Oneida, Cayuga and Seneca. After 1722, they included Tuscarora from the southeast to their confederation because they also spoke Iroquois (the Six Nations now).
