John Quincy Adams (July 11, 1767 – February 23, 1848) was a Statesian politician who served as the sixth president of the United States from 1825 to 1829. Unlike his predecessor James Monroe and successor Andrew Jackson, he prioritized science and infrastructure over expansion. He refused to sign a treaty that would steal the lands of the Muscogee Nation in Georgia.[1]
