Issues Of Early American Settlement

Disease and forced labor played an important role in America's earliest settlements. In the Spanish colonies from Florida and the south, smallpox caused a great loss to conquistadors and indigenous peoples. The so-called "black legend" about Spanish and Portuguese is actually somewhat correct, but it is somewhat misleading. "The conquistador thinks that cursing and tormenting Indians (" killing Christ "), stealing money, infecting smallpox, and leaving minor pain".

In the early history as an American country, the challenging problem was the management of the settlement of the border on the traditional land of Native American. One way to get the land at or near the established state is to move the tribe to the unstable territory of the West. In 1820 (Doha's position convention) and 1825 (Washington City Convention), Choctaw acquired land of Arkansas (including the current Oklahoma) in exchange for part of his home, mainly in Mississippi.

Early settlement areas were moderate, concentrated around the Amsterdam fort. However, once the settlement spreads beyond Manhattan, the land dispute will occur with Native American. Throughout the 1630s, several exercise aimed at eliminating the tribe of the "Indian River" along the downstream of the Hudson River was done. In 1642, settlement areas expanded, diseases of Europe spread to Native Americans, Munce young fighters dissatisfied with the invasion of the Netherlands, bad diplomacy of the Dutch governor William Kift was the first Dutch tribe It led to. A joint war with the Dutch people. The conflict robbed more than 1,600 Indians and countless settlers. In the next decade, there were two other wars with Munsee. Eventually, Munsee retreated to a small coastal village.

The border with the United States includes geography, history, folklore studies, cultural and cultural expressions, but this expansion began in the early 17th century in the colonial period of the British colonial era, last in 1912 The nation finished the continental territory. "Border" refers to a contrasting region at the end of the settlement of Europe and the United States. Although American historians cover several borders, private folklore is the west side of the Mississippi River, now the conquest and settlement of the Native American lands on the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains, the Southwest and the West Coast, Texas Midwest, I am concentrating on it.
