B. Americas Declaration of Independence.
The Powhatan Confederacy was a group of Native American tribes during the 17th century that settled in Virginia. Learn about how they rose in power under Powhatan, how they reacted to English colonists at Jamestown, and how they ended up in decline.
For Native Americans at the time, it would have been next to impossible to understand something like the Treaty of Tordesillas. This treaty intended to partition tracts of land that the Europeans did not even know whether they existed, an action that may have looked like sheer madness and even dishonorable, for the Europeans claimed possession of lands they had not conquered by the force of their arms.Maybe, after some thought and analysis, Native Americans would have felt outraged as a man living in such a distant place, the Pope in Rome, who had no authority whatsoever for them, made the decision of handing over lands, people,wealth, etc, to two different groups of Europeans. Perhaps, other Native Americans, once they managed to understand that agreement so odd to them, might have found it laughable and it might have prompted them to challenge to take what was their own over their dead bodies.
A foreign policy stance that advocates multilateral engagement for the good and protection of an allied country
After American settlers poured into Spanish Florida following the War of 1812, Spain decided to cede Florida to the U.S. and they agreed to a southern border of the U.S. west, extending all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Hope this helps!
