Native American Land

The national policy that took effect since the Washington government took office in 1790 was to supervise indigenous peoples and to integrate the Indians into society. The U.S. government recognizes that when the Spaniard arrived in 1500, local people roamed the new world and made policies based on this. However, President Andrew Jackson 's government forced local people to migrate to the west of the Mississippi River. As a result, Jackson dismissed indigenous peoples from 1829 to 1836 by president, which was a major deviation or change from the previous administration.

Prior to the arrival of the Europeans, the Native American land was occupied by various tribes of the Native Indian for thousands of years. Their culture and prehistoric stone age lifestyle have not changed. Native Americans have never experienced changes in the Bronze Age or Iron Age. Their weapons and tools are made of stone and have never experienced the use of metal. They have not experienced the way of Europe, especially from the perspective of land ownership. In this case, cultural conflict is inevitable

The biggest difference between Native American and European immigrants is land use and ownership. Native Americans believe that the land is sacred and needs to take care of nature. They also did not pay attention to the ownership of the land and the land and possessions of all the tribes were shared. The concept of ownership here is not commonly used. On the other hand, the beliefs of Europeans are very different from those of Native Americans. One of the main reasons Europeans came to the New World for the first time was to be rich! Land ownership meant liberty, wealth, and a higher social position for the Europeans of those days. Land has been handed down generously. For this reason, European and Native Americans caused a considerable cultural conflict with regard to land use and ownership ideology, and we still see the rest of today.
