They act like everybody should feel sorry for the colonists for stealing innocent people’s land and killing them. Throughout A Patriot’s History of the United States there are many incidents like on page 20 where it states, “killing more than three hundred settlers, the English retaliated by destroying Indian cornfields.” Was killing at least thousands of Native Americans before not enough? The authors are trying to make it seem like the colonists did nothing wrong, and they act like the Native Americans are just the “hostile Natives” for no reason throughout the entire book. I prefer A People’s History of the United States to A Patriot’s History of the United States.

The Pequot War was a fight that lasted from July 1636 to September 21, 1638. The people that fought were the colonials, in Plimoth and Massachusetts Bay colonies, and Indians in the area, mostly the Pequots and their tribute tribes. The main beleived cause for the war was the struggle of the English to control the Dutch-Pequot monopoly of the fur trading. There were also other incidents that increased the tensions between Indians and colonials, such as when the Indians killed John Oldham, livestock were destroying the Indian's crops, and the Dutch killed Indians that were at one of the Dutch's trading posts, The House of Hope. Other tribes joined the English once the fighting had started because they had a quarrel with the Pequots.
Historically, it is believed that the causes of large scale events and wars are often rooted in the outcomes of previous conflicts. The American Revolution, one of the largest most historically significant events of all time, was caused by a multitude of events. Specifically, many of the causes were in fact the results of past conflicts and ongoing tension, such as the French and Indian War and British taxation acts. Contrary to popular belief, the impact of American Revolution was not solely confined to the colonies and the British crown. Aside from leading to American independence, the American Revolution was a part of a larger global conflict, involving issues between Great Britain, France, and other foreign nations.
The Second Anglo-Powhatan War was fought from 1622 until 1632, pitting English colonists in Virginia against the Algonquian-speaking Indians of Tsenacomoco, led by Opitchapam and his brother (or close kinsman) Opechancanough. After the First Anglo-Powhatan War (1609–1614), which ended with the marriage of Pocahontas and John Rolfe, the English colony began to grow. The headright system begun in 1618 granted land to new immigrants who, in turn, sought to make their fortunes off tobacco. As English settlements pressed up the James River and toward the fall line, Indian leaders devised a plan to push them back and, in so doing, assert their supremacy over the newcomers.

In 1723, the six nation Tuscarora joined the Iroquois Confederacy.
The year 1754 saw the beginning of the French and Indian War in North America, which was an international conflict between the British Empire and The French Empire and its Native American allies (Schwartz, 1994, p.vii). The French and Indian War, or the Seven Years war in Europe, remains significant because it created an international redistribution of power and money that required European powers to shift focus away from their colonies. Scholars have argued that the French and Indian War is responsible for the exponential decline of the North American English colony’s dependence on the English government, and for creating the colonial stirrings for rebellion, causing the formation of the United States. It’s still important to study the French
