Compare And Contrast The Conflict Between Indians And Native Americans

The European and Native American warfare equipment and tactics differed greatly. The European were a more developed and established organization with a developed and established method of warfare and tactics. The European used prescribed military tactics to fight and defend, they used methods such as raids ambushes and unit formations to invade, surprise and defend against the enemy. The European also used a prescribed military battle doctrine or what’s know today as field manuals (FM’s), they also fought in small unit and moved tactically in formations. The European used weaponry far more advanced than the Native Americans. They were armed with weapons such as matchlocks, pikes, swards and armor. The small organized units were strong enough to defended gained ground regardless of the number of casualties taken.

If the English had never invaded the Indians’ land, there would have been no conflict and the Indians would have lived a happier

An event that is going to occur 30 years from this point is going to have the same effect, the two sides will go to war. Even though this land is the Indian’s land in the first place, kicking murderous Indians off of our land will ensure the safe settling of United

A lot of stuff could have been avoided winning the war. In a sense any gun would have been a great advantage in the war against the settlers. They could have avoided all the issues of moving from the east. Considering all aspects their lives would be a lot more peaceful. A bunch of stuff would have been different if the Indians won their lives would have been a lot better meanwhile the settlers would have been pushed back out towards the

Also the British rule destroyed the land and caused many deaths that only happened because the Indians were not being

The whites came to America and wanted all the Indians to move west. “Before these laws could be put in effect, a new wave of white settlers swept westward and formed the territories of Wisconsin and Iowa.” (Page 6) So they could live on the east side of the United States, this went on for years. “For two centuries these events were repeated again and again as the European colonists moved inland through the passes of the Alleghenies and down the westward-flowing rivers to the Great Waters (Mississippi) and then up the Great Muddy (Missouri)” (page 4). The problem was that the Indians didn’t want to move west. They wanted to stay on the land that they lived on forever, and make peace with everyone. “The five nations of the Iroquois, mightiest

In the early colonial period, the Native Americans were treated differently by three countries. These countries were the French, Spanish, and British. Out of the Spanish, French, and British; the French treated the Native Americans the best. The Spanish treated the Native Americans the worst.

Could whites and Indians have lived peaceably in the trans-Mississippi West? I do not think that the whites and Indians could have lived peacefully in the trans-Mississippi West. I believe this is because of the ways the Indians were living and hunting. Also with how the whites were not concerned with their customs and only had a one track mind on what they wanted of their land. The government “attempted” to keep peace by pressuring the Indians into treaties that were only broken and then new ones would be made. The government was not looking out for the tribes best interest either because they forced more restrictive agreements on the Indians which led to a war in the west between the whites and Indians. Looking back on the history, I

Powhatan argued that conflict between the colonists and Indians should stop. He believed that the two sides should create peace and become allies instead of enemies. Warehouse's argument was almost the exact opposite. Water house believed that the Indians are savage barbarians and that conquering them would be easier. He wanted to get revenge on the Indian people for attacking the colonists, and no longer wanted peace with them.

During the 16th and 17th centuries, when the Europeans started to come over to the new world, they discovered a society of Indians that was strikingly different to their own. To understand how different, one must first compare and contrast some of the very important differences between them, such as how the Europeans considered the Indians to be extremely primitive and basic, while, considering themselves civilized. The Europeans considered that they were model societies, and they thought that the Indians society and culture should be changed to be very similar to their own.

The Native American and the European conflicts. Hard days it was for the Native, but it wasent fair for the them. They thought the European's were gonna make peace with them. In other words they didn't the European's brought new stuff that the Native didn't know about. sickness, new technology many more.

After the signing of The Treaty of Paris in 1783 that ended the American Revolutionary War, it gave the United States all authority over territory that was previously under British rule. This created conflict between States settlers from Georgia and South Carolina that wanted to settle on Cherokee land. To end hostilities between State settlers and Indians the U.S. government enacted the Treaty of Hopewell in 1785 which was a peace treaty between the U.S. and the Cherokee Nation, it also set boundaries and it gave Cherokees a right to remove any unwanted settlers within their boundaries. I argue that due to changes in traditional values, Georgia laws, Indian Removal Act, differing ideas of relocation between Cherokees is what led to the failure in trying to “civilize” the Cherokees and ultimately diving the Cherokee community. Before the Europeans made any contact with Native American, they were hunt gatherers.

Although white European settlers and the native Indians had existed moderately peaceful for around 40 years pressures rose in the mid-seventh century. Conflict arose due to decline in Indian territories, population, and their cultural integrity. These differences ultimately lead to conflicts in which collectively became known as King Philip’s War. What types of complaints did the Indians have against the settlers? How were the Indians expected to survive if the settlers kept taking their land? The primary sources in this collection of source documents touch upon on what each group (Indian or white settlers) did to survive: an excerpt from a narrative written by John Easton, a second hand account written by Thomas Church, a report written to the English leaders by Edward Randolph, a petition written by an Indian named William Nahton, and an excerpt of an account from a book written by Mary Rowlandson. These documents illustrate the main causes that sparked the war between the Native Indians and the white English settlers, narratives written by both sides to find peaceful solutions, and actual accounts of people who survived the conflict. The second hand account written about Benjamin Church’s meeting with the Indian group known as the Sakonnet Indians displays that the Indians knew their only chance of survival was to fight while the report written to English leaders by Randolph suggest that the settlers who viewed the Indians as uncivilized had ultimately forced the Indians

IDiscuss the various reactions or strategies that Native Americans utilized against the Europeans when their land was invaded.

When the Europeans and Spaniards first “discovered” North America all was well. The Indians at first were truly intrigued with the white man as the brought all sorts of new stuff to trade. Matter a fact the first set of settlers would not been able to survive without the help of the Indians. Unfortunately, the settlers had very little respect for the land and resources. The Europeans then starting using violence to get what they wanted and as the number of settlers increased the Indians new that they were in over their heads. With all the new settlers came diseases such as small pox and measles. These diseases hurt the Indian tribes severely, and with the ignorance the settler’s wars began; the Indian Wars, the Indian Removal Act, Wounded knee, and the trail of tears are only a few of the many. The U.S. Government took it upon themselves to start relocation programs, with these programs the Indians were ripped from their homes, required to speak only the language of the settlers and robbed of their customs. The children of the tribes were taken away and sent to special schools to Americanize them and forget about their heritage. Then in the late 1800’s the government started
