https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalization_Act_of_1795

This article does not detail why the act was created in the first place. There are multiple scholarly articles on the topic such as http://www.indiana.edu/~kdhist/H105-documents-web/week08/naturalization1790.html

There is a discussion talking about the relevancy of the act on the talk page as it was replaced by a later act.

    This is an interesting idea for a project. How did this act relate to Latin America? How many Latin@ people were trying to become US citizens in 1795? I think that you’re right that it is still important to cover historical topics despite the fact that other laws have replaced them and made the old laws obsolete. Did you find other sources that talked about the significance of the act rather than just the wording of it?
