The passoge below (paragraph 8) adds to the development of the text malnly by \( \qquad \) Although this new government sought to treat all citizens as equals, not everyone was allowed to be a "clizon," such as Native Americans. women, immigrents, and slioves.

The passage sheds light on the ongoing struggles for equality and rights that have persisted even after the establishment of a government based on Enlightenment ideals. It highlights that despite the promise of equal treatment, many groups—including Native Americans, women, immigrants, and enslaved individuals—were systematically denied their rights for centuries, illustrating the inadequacies in applying Enlightenment principles effectively. By acknowledging that certain populations were excluded from the legal protections guaranteed by the government, the text emphasizes the historical gap between the ideal of universal rights and the reality of human rights abuses. This oversight serves as a reminder that the journey toward true equality has been fraught with challenges and remains ongoing.
