Answer 2

The correct answer is B) Native Americans did not believe in land ownership.

A reason for conflict between Europeans and Native Americans was that Native Americans did not believe in land ownership.

Conflicts were the constant word in the relationships of Native American Indian tribes and white European colonists. The reason: the land.

European settlers wanted more land to settle in and make it productive. They wanted to produce cash crops to trade and export, have a profit, and own more land to settle in. Native American Indians, on the other hand, did not believe in the European concept of property. American Indians believed that nature provided everything they needed, That is why they offered chants and dances to earth and worship the elements and animals, Native American Indians believed that the land belonged to their ancestors and it was their right to keep it.
