natulia [17]3 years ago

The idea is that some areas who have a higher population would always outweigh areas that have lower populations like California vs Montana. So to fix this they put in place the electoral college which allows areas with lower populations to have more say in voting processes. This is inherently undemocratic yet explains why a popular vote does not always matter.

How did the English colonists interact with the Native Americans; who was Metacomet and what was King Philip’s War?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The Indians living in the area where Jamestown was settled must have had mixed feelings about the arrival of the English in 1607. One of their first reactions was hostility based on their previous experience with Spanish explorers along their coastline. They attacked one of the ships before the English actually landed. Yet the Indians soon began to offer food and traditional Indian hospitality to the newcomers. At first, Powhatan, leader of a confederation of tribes around the Chesapeake Bay, hoped to absorb the newcomers through hospitality and his offerings of food. As the colonists searched for instant wealth, they neglected planting corn and other work necessary to make their colony self-sufficient. They therefore grew more and more dependent on the Indians for food.

King Philip's War is sometimes called the First Indian War. It took place between 1675 and 1678. King Philip's war was fought between the English colonists of New England and a group of Native American tribes. The main leader of the Native Americans was Metacomet, chief of the Wampanoag peoples.
