Question

What effect did population growth have on the conflict between colonists and Native Americans?

Answer 1

Answer:

The effect that an increase in population growth, especially of colonists, had on the conflict existent between colonists and Native American peoples, was that it increased the problem even more, particularly because colonists began to demand more and more land, and wished to have it from anywhere, without a consideration to anyone else.

Explanation

During colonial times, and as colonists both reproduced, and more arrived from Europe, conflicts arose with Native Americans basically because of the voracity of colonists for land and resources. This voracity pushed colonists to move into lands that were from Native American tribes, and as more arrived, even more lands were taken away from these tribes. Even though supposed laws and regulations were imposed on colonists to protect the rights of Native Americans, these laws and regultations were ignored by colonists, who still invaded Native lands. This increased the conflict and as the population of colonists grew, conflict also grew.

Answer 2

Increased problems. because as the colonist population grew the Native americans go pushed farther away to make room for new people and made natives feel anger towards colonists for taking so much of their land and not getting anything in return
