    The Five Nations of the Iroquois faced a smallpox epidemic in 1633, which cut their population by one third, and then to add on they were in multiple devastating wars with other tribes. So overall their population decreased between 1600 and 1700, even though they started off so well at the beginning of the 17th century. They were better off at the beginning of the period because their population was higher and they were not facing multiple defeats in wars or diseases. They had also acquired goods and guns from Dutch traders.…

    The population of Indians in the New World greatly altered the political and economic society there. After 1492, 90% of all Indians had died due to disease from the Europeans, greatly weakening the power and supremacy of certain Indian tribes. Tribes like the Inca, Maya, and Aztec were all some of the strongest tribes and empires in all of the New World, but nevertheless were defeated by Europeans as a result of new leaders being put in charge of these strong groups because of the previous leader dying of disease. The population decrease in the New World also resulted in the a decline of economics for the Indians because once the Europeans discovered and claimed the lands that each tribe lived on, they were forced into slavery and more specifically served under the encomienda system because of their minimal power and supremacy over the Europeans. Clearly, the decrease in population negatively affected the political and economic systems of the Indians.…

    The Whites felt like the Indians didn’t have any guidance. Indian women made their food, nurse, and raised the children. It was stated in the story, “If we could examine the manners of different nations with impartiality, we should find no people so rude, as to be without any rules of politeness; nor any so polite, as not to have some remains of rudeness.” That’s where the differences took…

    One of the ways the Europeans left a cultural impact on the Native Americans is that they decreased the population significantly. One of the ways that the Europeans decreased the Native population was through the spread of foreign diseases. Some of the diseases they spread were small pox, influenza, and measles. The Native Americans had no immunity whatsoever when those diseases plagued them so it lead to terrible suffering then eventually death. Another cause in the decrease in the Native Peoples population was the displacement of many Native Americans. An example of displacement would be the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Although this event took place a while after Europeans the arrived in the “New World,” it was still influenced later on after the colonizing of America. This led to the killing of many Native Americans in similar events that took place if they were not compliant with new laws that were implemented after the colonizing of America. These are just some of the ways on how the Europeans left a cultural impact by decreasing the Native population.…

    With all the noise and conflict about Canopian immigration, I think it’s time to put things straight. Canopians are no different to humans in that they are still creatures that can feel emotion. Remember that Human that went to jail for shooting a Canopian? He went to jail righteously so. He didn’t “defend his own territory”, as stated in “Protect Your Planet”. He was the landlord of the poor Canopian, and he suddenly turned cold hearted. Sometimes, it’s confusing why these misconceptions are made, like how Canopians “supposedly” brought diseases that were hard to fight and how we only do “cheap labour”. But that’s far from the truth. Almost none of the lifeforms that infect us have any effect on Humans. The cheap labour we offer is not our fault;…
