1835+Constitution

With problems regarding the Constitution of 1776, many Americans wanted to see a change of representation in each of their states. This required a new constitution however. State's voters went up on the polls in 1835 to discuss if a constitutional convention was neccessary to address the problems with the current constitution. The majority of the west agreed but the majority of the east disagreed. Most of the population though was concentrated in the west so they reached a conclusion that they would amend the 1776 constitution. At the convention Nathanial Macon was named the chairman, however the true leaders were David Swain and William Gaston. The new constitution still would let each county have at least one representative but more populous counties would have multiple representatives. This made the west more satisfied with the constitution so in return they would compromise this: The wealthier the county, the more senators it recieved.

Kit Carson was one of the greatest explorers in America in his time. He was orphaned as a child and trained to work as a saddle maker. At age 15 he ran away and became a cook and errand boy on the Santa Fe Trail. His hunting and trapping skills grew during this time, to even to rival those of Daniel Boone and David Crockett. Although most hunters were rough in behavior, Carson showed a gentle disposition in personality. He married twice, both times were to Indian maidens, and both died at early age.
