There are all kinds of stories of hostilities between early American colonists and the Native people who were already there. However, these hostilities did not occur with every European group who came. The French are a notable exception to this, and in fact, enjoyed excellent relations with the Natives almost from the very beginning.
Why were the French different? The main reason is that they did not try to change the Natives. They also did not compete with the Natives for land. When the French first came to the Americas in the 1530s and 1540s to engage in seasonal fur trading, they immediately established strong trading ties with the local Natives they found there. The Natives already dealt extensively in furs.
Antietam is the bloodiest day in American history
(A quote from an anonymous says : “Over time things change, but some things always stay the same.” From the Era of Foragers, to our Modern Era, our ability to
communicate, organize, create, and destroy have in many ways been altered and also stayed the same. From history we all can now look back and actually see how much things have already been altered, and we can also notice how many things have also remained the same. Some things that will probably always be the same are our race’s ability to be technologically creative. We have an imagination that will virtually never run out, and allows us to always think of new things to change, make, or get rid of to make our lives more convenient. However things that we’re creating or things that we’ve already created are always going to change the way we live.
