"how effective were native americans in overcoming the negative aspects of european policies"

1 answer:

6 0

The native Americans were either not effective at all or the effects were on a short term while trying to overcome the negative aspects for them from the European policies. This is due to few reasons:

- Not organized; most of the tribes were functioning individually and were rarely making alliances (usually small ones), but never came to a situation to fully organize themselves and to stand up to the Europeans. Not to mention the fact that lots of tribes collaborated with the Europeans at the expense of the other tribes.

- Quickly outnumbered; because of death caused by war and diseases, and the ever increasing number of new settlers from Europe, the native Americans were outnumbered in a very short space of time, so they lost their only advantage.

- Technologically and military disadvantaged; Europeans were much more technologically and military advanced than the native Americans, so whenever they were not willing to collaborate and listen to their orders, the Europeans used violence and force, and most of the time managed to sort out things in their interest very quickly and efficiently, and the native populations were not able to stop them.

According to al bakri in what ways do customs in kumbi saleh differ from customs in arab lands

Blizzard [7]

According to Al Bakri, Kumbi Saleh (Ghana) consisted of two towns. In one town lived the arabs, it held twelve mosquets and numerous wells of sweet water. In this town lived learned men, as well as jurists and religious men. Six miles away laid the city where the king lived (Al Ghaba), in a palace surrounded by a defensive wall.

Only the king and his heir could wear sewn clothes and other accessories, signs of wealth, while the common people that followed his religion could only dress with simplicity, shaving their beards and hair. The king's way of living would exude power, wealth and magnificence, and his followers could only show humility by kneeling and sprinting their heads with dust. While the arabs would greet him by clapping.

As I understand it, the customs in arab lands were much more equal, there were not big social differences between its inhabitants. In the other part of the city, this was not the case, there would be big social differences between the king and its followers, that the author doesn't name bi its etniciti, nationality or religion. They were just the followers of the king.
