The Iroquois had no significant influence on the drafting or ratification of the Constitution or the Articles of Confederation. In all probability, the framers and the members of the Continental Congress would have written those documents the way they did even if they had not known of the Iroquois League. The Iroquois created the Iroquois League without having to learn about confederations from the Swiss or the ancient Greeks. Similarly, the Americans created the United States of America without having to borrow the idea from the Iroquois.

B.The Iroquois League did not influence the writing of the US founding documents.
