The Native Americans believed in naturalism, which is a belief that spirits are in every single form of nature, like in a rock or in an animal. They were very traditional in their ways of hunting and building their villages and would always try to preserve nature as best as they can. The settlers had a completely different viewpoint of a proper civilization and chopped down trees to clear out land and hunted animals for sport. To the Native Americans, settlers were very uncivilized and did not care for nature and to the settlers the Native Americans were uncultured and pagan people. This unrest between the lifestyles of these people groups would spark multiple battles throughout the course of American history.
