Answer:
Until the Mexican-American War (1846–48) only a few Americans—explorers, soldiers, trappers, sheep drivers—visited Arizona. In 1851 the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers sent several expeditions into Arizona to find a suitable route on which to build a wagon road to California. To protect travelers, miners, and other settlers from Native Americans, the U.S. government began to locate army posts at key sites. In 1883 workers completed the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway across northern Arizona, thereby linking St. Louis, Missouri, with California; that same year the Southern Pacific Railroad completed a line from New Orleans to Los Angeles by way of Tucson and Yuma.

Similarities:
All three revolutions served to decrease monarchical authority.
All three revolutions allowed for bigger citizen participation in politics.
All three revolutions gave more rights to their citizens.
Differences:
Decrease of monarchical powers:
The glorious revolution only severely reduced the power of the monarch, whereas the other two (French and American revolutions) effectively removed the monarch.
The Glorious revolution and French revolution led to immediate change, whereas the American revolution only led to an institutional change. Women were still considered property of men, and only rich white male land-owners could vote in the new American Republic.
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.
