Convinced he was correct, Columbus fostered the use of the term Indios (originally, “person from the Indus valley”) to refer to the peoples of the so-called New World.

How did guerrilla tactics benefit the Americans?
Nitella [24]

Answer: American insurgents also used guerrilla warfare tactics during the War of Independence.

Explanation:

Such a way was specially recorded at the beginning of the War of Independence. The Americans were rebels, and it is not unusual for rebel troops to use guerrilla warfare. The British were militarily and technologically superior; they had much more experience in warfare, so going directly to the rebels would be a big mistake. Therefore, the Americans used surprise attacks, attacked in smaller groups, used ambushes. This type of warfare brought many problems to the British because the enemy was difficult to catch.
