The first groups of people to settle in the Americas were the Native Americans. Years after them, European settlers (Pilgrims) came here in search of wealth. The did anything that they could to gain wealth, including treating the Native American awfully. They claimed that this was God's plan for them.

The White settlers conquered the Native American, enslaved them, mass murdered them, and forced the survivors to live on Reservations. Then, the European settlers continued to follow the Manifest Destiny ( the lie that it was God's plan for then to conquer all of America).

Then, the settler decided that they could make their lives easier by taking people from Africa and enslaving them. This was another method that they used to gain more land. SInce they had the slaves doing all of their work for them, they were able to make plans to move west and settle all of America.

why did the economy of the french colonies in america 's depend on a good relationship with native americans

balu736 [363]

Because of the fur trade.

The fur trade was main form of economy for the French colonies and the French got their fur from you guessed it, Native Americans. French colonists are an exception when it comes to dealing with Native Americans as they had good relationship with them and did not thought of them as inferior. They traded European goods for furs and the Native Americans even helped them by showing them goods hunting spots. So their relationship was one of cooperation.
