If you did not have forest on the land you got then you would have a hard time surviving or even getting anything for their house. According to the letters in distress “All right for those present who are living with lands which forest ,but , we who live eon lands which have no forest, we are in trouble” This is social because if you don 't have forest the way you live is to eat very little and have very little but if you have forest then you can turn trees into lumber, firewood. The Mehele also had a political The Mehele also had social impacts on the makaainana. To the hawaiians it was a silly idea to own land because it belonged to the gods, but then the land was spit and the two parts were crown land and government land .
One reason the white settlers did not have the right to move so rapidly was because the Native Americans physically had nowhere else to go. Where did the white settlers
Competition over resources among European societies led to trade and conflict. One such conflict was the French and Indian War. Both the British and the French wanted to control the land, and its resources, located in the Ohio River Valley. The British tried to control Native American trade and gain more land by taking over French forts in the Ohio River Valley. Eventually, the French were kicked out of continental North America when the British won.
One of the biggest problems was undoubtedly the fact that almost everybody did not have respect for property rights. Native American’s never showed hostility until the newcomers threatened their home and life. The United States government promised the Indians that they could live peacefully on their new land. However that did not work out, as land treaties were broken because of precious ore that ruined many a life being discovered on their property.
The Europeans would pray but would not take religion as earnestly as the natives. The commandments say to “Love thy Neighbor”, but the Europeans not only take advantage of the natives, but also take their land. Alongside the religious aspect of their differences, money was also a big factor in the bias. Native Americans did not need money to live in tranquility, as they did before the Europeans came into the picture.
Before America was more civilized and polite, people of different races were treated more harshly as if they were animals instead of humans. Many Westerners did not enjoy and instead resented the Native Americans. To the settlers, the Natives were “unfamiliar, alien people who occupied land that white settlers wanted and believed they deserved” (History Channel Staff). The disapproval from white settlers was present until Natives got more acquainted white culture. The Natives gained many rights including individual ownership of land or property, and sometimes even slaves.
The poor agriculture management has wasted the fertile lands in the heart of southern areas causing more trouble for the poor people so there was a wave of migration from areas to west in search of cheap land and fertile soil. There was another lot who bought land illegally from Indians in the west in a hope to sell it at a high price which failed to reach the purpose. 5- What were the primary causes and outcomes of the U.S.-Mexican War (1846-48)?
I came to a higher understanding of the importance of respecting someone’s culture and heritage after reading this week’s assignments. Unfortunately, the ignorance around us does not allow us to visualize the harm cause on Native Americans. For instance, I am no sports fan but have seen the logos and mascots of many teams in which American Indian’s figures and languages are used. It was not until today that I sympathize with many American Indians who are offended with those images and slangs. My ignorance was not as a participant in this behavior but of an individual unaware of the situation.
The People against Native Americans As new people come to America and begin to settle, Native Americans were pushed farther and farther away from their homeland. Their land was taken from them and their freedoms were long gone. White settlers had created restrictions on their land, trade, and freedom which are still in effect today.
Due to the archaeologists failing to see the real problem with both the Dakota Access Pipeline and the Great Planes Expanse, the US government is already budding heads with the Native Americans, which could lead to future problems with them. The roads that are built to boost the economy not only help today’s society, but they run through Native American land which was promised to them and is not supposed to be touched by the US
When English royalty began giving charters for the exploration of America, people had no idea what kinds of adversities they would face. While eager to obtain new land and sources of economic growth, many ignored the possible negative outcomes of exploration. English settlers would be forced to overcome human and environmental challenges that would make it difficult to establish and maintain permanent colonies in America from the time of Sir Walter Raleigh to the time of Opechancanough. When Sir Walter Raleigh organized the expedition to Roanoke, the primary reason to go to America was the possibility of establishing a profitable colony.
Throughout the nineteenth century, most white settlers viewed Native Americans as lesser people and who were no better than animals. However, the thoughts about the survivability of Native Americans were in sharp contrast. Many commentators believed that American Indians were unable to evolve to sustain their prehistoric lifestyle and would soon die off. Others thought American Indians were instead able to endure the rapid change and would survive. With rumors and myths spreading rapidly, it became abundantly clear that in the nineteenth century Native Americans were widely viewed as a dying race although there were the occasional reports on the success and survivability of American Indian groups.
Since their initial encounter with the Europeans in the late fifteenth century, Native Americans have lost a tremendous amount of their beliefs, values, and tribal practices. This loss in social cohesion has been the outcome of the cultural clash, or conflict between cultures, with the colonization of the Americas by the Europeans. The social distinction between the members of indigenous populations and the Spaniards resulted in the formation of new races and religion, which is accounted to be part of the reason for the diversity of culture in the Americas today. Articles such as: “Aztec Account of the Conquest of Mexico,” “Body and Soul Among the Maya,” “Indigenous Eroticism and Colonial Morality in Mexico,” and “Art and Society in Highland
Native Americans are known to be the nation's invisible minority and it is extremely disturbing in our American society. Native Americans have a hard time finding an identity and voice in our nation, and there is little attention given to them. This is ironic because Native Americans were the first people to live in the American continents. The Europeans came to America and burned down their villages and lands and tried to enslave them. Millions of Native American were killed by Europeans.

While their people have inhabited the United States for thousands of years, today their numbers are dwindling. From Columbus's arrival to America up until modern day life, Native American tribes have been oppressed by white settlers.
