Answer:  Savage, primitive cannibalistic, who didn't know much with the underdeveloped culture and value system

Explanation:  When Columbus arrived in America, discovering its landscapes and people, native people, he already had with him firmly formed beliefs and convictions that were completely different from what he found with native people in the new world. The way of life of the native people was completely different from that which was in Europe from which Columbus came, and they found semi-naked or completely naked people, with a completely different valuation system, as can be seen from this record. From the point of view of the deeply established culture that ruled Europe, this kind of appearance and way of life of native people was primitive. In addition, their rituals were sometimes with human sacrifices, so the epitome of cannibalism was thus affixed to them, portraying them as cannibalistic primitive. Due to the way of dressing, or more accurately not dressing, as well as the unworthiness of valuable items like gold and the like for the purposes of trade and wealth, Columbus saw them, at least initially, as primitive, cannibalistic, very well built capable of working and skilful.

However, despite the initial realisation that this was a completely different and primitive culture, it could also be inferred from Columbus' descriptions that they were humble and fearful people who did not carry weapons, not because they were incapable of doing so but were full of natural awe and some innate ancient kinship with nature. In addition, there were many records of their loyalty, honesty, simplicity and simple way of life, which is in accordance with their beliefs and shows one, though different from the European, highly developed culture and value system.

What are the similarities and differences between trump and Andrew Jackson
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Differences: Jackson was different. No one like him had ever served as president. He made executive decisions based on his personal beliefs and did what he could to protect the common man. Jackson, who survived diseases like smallpox, malaria, dysentery, rheumatism and dropsy and endured physical disability most of his adult life after being shot in the chest during a duel, was just shy of Mr. Trump in stature, standing 6-foot-1. But Jackson was far thinner, with estimates between 145 pounds and 154 pounds, putting his body mass index at 20 or lower.

Similarities: Both Jackson and Trump also ran on campaigns to weed out corruption in government. On this count, the comparison produces mixed results. While Trump has yet to take office, early indications are that his promise to “drain the swamp” of Washington corruption has fallen by the wayside
