Despite being separated by an entire continent, King Phillip’s War and The Pueblo Revolt paralleled each other in their causes, courses, and consequences. In New England, King Philip’s War was a conflict between the Wampanoag Indians and the English settlers of the Plymouth Colony from1675 to 1677. Far, far away in what is now New Mexico, the Pueblo Revolt was an uprising of Pueblo Indians against the Spanish settlers in the colony of Santa Fe de Nuevo México in 1680. Their similarities explain much about the relationships between Native Americans and European colonists at the time.…

In this paper, I will be summarizing the following chapters: Chapter 3: "A Legacy of Hate: The Conquest of Mexico’s Northwest”; Chapter 4: “Remember the Alamo: The Colonization of Texas”; and Chapter 5: “Freedom in a Cage: The Colonization of New Mexico. All three chapters are from the book, “Occupied America, A History of Chicanos” by Rodolfo F. Acuna. In chapter three, Acuna explains the causes of the war between Mexico and North America. In chapter four, Acuna explains the colonization of Texas and how Mexicans migrated from Mexico to Texas. In chapter five, Acuna explains the colonization of New Mexico and the economic changes that the people had to go through.…
What caused the Pueblo revolt of 1680? The answer to this question, with some basic research, can seem easy to answer at first. However the more this topic is examined the more difficult it is to answer this simple question. It is said that one of the main reasons the Spanish came to Mexico is the search for treasure and wealth. While on this mission for wealth, the Spaniards settled in land that was already occupied by Pueblo Indians in Northern Mexico. Later, the Spanish end up creating a pact with the Pueblo people. Eventually, the Spaniards used the Pueblo people as an advantage to use as a labor force and to spread Christianity. In Weber’s novel he compiles several different pieces of people’s work and bundles them into one unit while…

This diversity expanded from, what is now kenned as, the Gulf of Mexico to the Baja California Peninsula. Moreover, this engendered a melting pot of cultures first discovered by the Spanish in the 16th century. As a result, most Mexicans today verbalize Spanish with some still verbalizing their regional language. “Spanish is verbalized by 92.7 percent of the Mexican population. About 6 percent of the population verbalizes Spanish as well as indigenous languages, such as Mayan, Nahuatl and other regional languages” (Central Astuteness Agency, 2016). These statistics, furthermore, expound the diversity and adherence to traditions within Mexico. Family traditions, as in most second world countries, play a major role in every aspect of the upbringing of a child, or in this case, multiple children. It is thought that Hispanic families, more concretely Mexican families, incline to have sizably voluminous households. This of course is a misconception, due to the fact of the Patriarchal style of living. This can bring forth a hardship unique to the rural areas of Mexico. “Although one-quarter of Mexico’s population lives in rural areas, more than 60 percent of the extreme poor reside there. Many adults migrate from rural Mexico, not only to more sizably voluminous cities within Mexico, but additionally to the Amalgamated States” (Commiseration International, 2017). This style of living is essentially the roots of all Mexican culture. Since, all Mexican people can trace their recent lineage to those rural areas, or as its is more commonly referred to as, ranchos. Ranchos and farms just like in the U.S. are the agricultural hubs that engender the countries crops. According to Nations Encyclopedia, Domestically, the most consequential crops for…
Numerous individuals know how Columbus As a collective group of individuals, we learn of those who have lived before us – from the discovery of the West Indies to the interaction of the natives and colonist. However, even when the colonists have discovered these lands, it has been unclear as to which group of natives has been affected the most due to the arrival of the Spanish. As historians and their books have recorded, Columbus “discovered” the West Indies and its inhabitants in 1492. These natives were called “Indians” by Columbus. The native groups that the colonists have initially encountered were the Taino who inhabited what is now known as Haiti and Dominican Republic and the Mexica (Aztecs) who lived in the valleys of Mexico. When both groups are taken into consideration, the Tainos were the most affected by the Spanish arrival. This due to the fact that the Spanish conquistadors changing the hierarchy, total population, the structures of the Taino life have all been accustomed to before coming into contact with the colonist.…
There are many issues that can arise when studying ancient history, some of them being the issue of reliability, usefulness and how bias a source can be. In this specific text the issues of reliability and biasness come up.…
This chapter covers considerable ground and refers to a wide range of features and concepts. Do not be concerned if it appears disjointed or seems to require an immersion in history: return to these features later in your study and they will become clearer.…
Since the peculiar mixture of responsibility and presumption in the title of my paper will scarcely have escaped the notice of this distinguished audience, I feel some need to explain at the outset that it represents an assignment on the part of those who planned our meeting. The significance of the problems to which it points is suggested by the great historians who have grappled with it in the past, albeit (a fact that should constitute something of a warning) with somewhat contrary results, among them Michelet, Dilthey, and Troeltsch.[1] Its practical importance lies in the need of most of us to place our more limited conclusions in some broader historical framework; we must therefore reconsider, from…
