- Chesapeake
- Spanish Southwest
Try to give a couple of reasons for each. I need about five, but you can give less if you want to.How did actions taken by both Native Americans and European colonists shape relationships in these areas?
Spanish Southwest:
Hundreds of thousands of Native Americans had inhabited regions like the Great Plains, the Southwest, and the Pacific Coast for centuries, but their nomadic lifestyle enabled settlers to continue the ongoing process of encroachment. In the eyes of the whites, the Indians' migratory social structure also made them unfit to ';properly'; settle the land according to the Western model of agricultural production.
Georgia:
When Native Americans turned to the federal government to support their territorial claims, even winning a Supreme Court ruling that affirmed those claims, President Jackson turned a deaf ear. He ignored three decades of government precedent, and a clear Court ruling, while implementing a removal policy that displaced over 90,000 people.
