Natives Vs Iroquois Settlers
When the settlers arrived they were shocked to see natives on a land they planned to call their own. The explorers refused to adapt to the natives way of living it almost seemed as they wanted to be in control of everything around them including the way children were taught what languages would be spoken and in what god they grew up believing in. the settlers were more about business and the native was all about being one with the land and living off the earth beautiful creation. The Natives adapted to the settlers beliefs and way of living but they would use their own symbols.
Iroquois is known for the natives langue, not necessarily a tribe there were five or more tribes associated with the group "Iroquise" there for could not give it one

    The English colonization of North America was the beginning of a new world, a world that brought people from different continents, cultures, and religious backgrounds together. This new world was populated by Native American tribes, colonists, explorers, and traders from Spain, France, and the Netherlands. Of course all these different cultures could not agree on everything, which eventually lead to more colonies forming with many different bylaws. Most of these colonies had little success in the early years of their settlement due to disease and malnutrition. The Europeans soon realized the knowledge received from the Native people would be a major factor in the survival of their newly structured communities.…

    Of all of the perspectives given to me, I believe that the apache tribe had the most reasonable and justified perspective. The apache only resorted to violence when they were avenging a tribe member that was murdered, or when they were trying to defend themselves, unlike the settlers,O’odham tribe, Mexican Americans, and U.S government who would kill simply because they didn’t like them.…

    The Iroquois group is a near perfect model of the diverse native tribes in North America and how they create their own structures of life. The five chiefdoms or nations that are a part of the group are the Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas. They were known as the Iroquois Five Nation Confederacy, and had joined together during the nineteenth century during a period of constant violence. They joined together because of this because they did not want to be a part of the violence, thus making it warfare outlawed amongst its’ members. They separated themselves into a confederacy or culture.…

    In the early 1800s, White settlements were expanding westward. This threatened the Cherokee land which was located in the Southeastern part of the United States. This left the Cherokee with a big decision to make for their entire tribe. Would they relocate West ,or stay for the White settlements to invade where they call home. After all, the Cherokee had owned the land for over 10,000 years. It was not the United States’ land to take. This is why many of the Cherokee Nation felt the need to stay. Others wanted to move because they felt that if they did not, then the United States territory would override the Cherokee customs and they would have to follow United States laws. Clearly the best chance of survival for the Cherokee was to stay in…

    Native Americans believed that land is to be preserved for future generations, only temporary use, you only on the crops and anyone in the village can use it. Differences in opinions with Europeans would cause many future conflicts. In the early 1600’s settlers in Jamestown had problems with the Powhatan confederacy after a colonist killed their leader. Other settlements such as Plymouth fared better with the natives. A Patucet Indian named Squanto saved the pilgrims by teaching them how to farm.…

    The Iroquois, or Haudenosaunee, which means “people of the longhouse”, were a great nation that was made up of six smaller nations, the Seneca, Cayuga, Oneida, Onondaga, Mohawk, and the Tuscarora (The Canadian Encyclopedia). The Iroquois was formed when five nations, the Seneca, Cayuga, Oneida, Onondaga, and Mohawk signed a Great Law of Peace, which is considered to be both a political foundation and the root for the Iroquois society in general (The Canadian Encyclopedia). It was not until 1722, when the Tuscarora moved north from Virginia and North Carolina that they joined the confederacy as well (The Canadian Encyclopedia). This nation is located south of the Great lakes in modern day New York State (The Canadian Encyclopedia). They spoke…
