On his first voyage, Columbus claimed San Salvador, Cuba and Hispaniola as Spanish possessions. He built a fort and left behind Spanish soldiers to hunt for gold on Hispaniola, while he returned to Spain. (These men were later murdered by the inhabitants of the island for mistreating them.) On his second voyage, Columbus took a thousand Spanish colonists to settle in Hispaniola. This was the first European colony in the ‘New World’. These colonists fought among themselves and with the inhabitants of the island. They were greedy and complained that there was not enough gold to make them all rich. They were given land and allowed to force the indigenous people to work for them, but they were still not satisfied. The colonists were also responsible forintroducing foreign epidemic diseases such as influenza, smallpox, measles and typhus, which drastically reduced the indigenous population in the Caribbean within 50 years.

What was the major cause of tension between the mexican government and texas colonists?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The major cause of  tension was the fact that the Anglo settlers didn't care much for Mexican laws or Mexican culture and just wanted to get their independence. For example, Catholicism was the only religion allowed in Mexico and they practices what they wanted. They didn't even want to learn Spanish or do anything similar.

What three major acts of Congress most affected the relationship between tribal government and the United States government?
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

  1. Demarcation of indigenous lands.
  2. Permission of political rights for indigenous peoples.
  3. Indian Reorganization Act formulation

Explanation:

In 1887 the American Congress promoted the demarcation of indigenous lands. The demarcation promoted the existence of indigenous reserves, where the natives had to move to a specific territory that was demarcated as an indigenous reserve. This act greatly weakened the relationship between the Americans and the indigenous tribes, since the tribes saw this act as harmful. During that time, the indigenous people were subjected to a forced assimilation by American culture. Children were forced to study in regular schools, where they were punished for wearing the typical clothes of their tribes, or to speak their native languages, for example.

In 1924, the congress decided to provide political rights to indigenous people through the Citizenship Act. At that time, indigenous people were considered American citizens. This act was not welcomed by the indigenous community, which was afraid that it would take away the status of the indigenous community as the original community of that country.

In 1934, the congress approved the Indian Reorganization Act, which allowed tribes to adopt their own constitutions, giving indigenous people the right to discuss their territories, conditions for obtaining tribe member status, the possibility of establishing powers, documents, eligibility, among other rights.
