To help the Iroquois stay protected against others (text book answer).
To expand on this, the Iroquois Confederation was formed on August 31st 1142 (by records of a solar event). It was formed with the intention of "Gayanashagowa" (Great Law of Peace) in an attempt by those tribes to ensure peaceful relations between all tribes of the area and a larger tribal response to any attack on one of its smaller tribes. The Continental Congress formally invited the Iroquois Confederation to aid them in development of the United States Government (US Constitution) on June 11th 1776.

To keep the peace the Iroquois Confederacy developed the Great Law. It was more than a set of rules it was also a set of guidelines. They also set up a Grand Council that made decisions through discussion and compromise.
The leaders of the Iroquois Confederacy refused an alliance with the British during the French and Indian War primarily because they sought to maintain their autonomy and avoid being drawn into European conflicts. They were wary of British intentions and feared that aligning with them would undermine their power and land rights. Additionally, the Iroquois had established trading relationships with the French, which they were reluctant to jeopardize by siding with the British. The desire to protect their territory and sovereignty ultimately guided their decision.
