Surprisingly, Native American and Catholic religions have as much in common as they have in differences. Native Americans have been practicing their individual, but very similar religions for thousands of years. Yet, in a brief period of time, they lost much their traditional religious practices due to the aggressive Catholic administration and missionaries in their efforts to “reform”, modernize, and educate Native American populations and their associated religions. The intolerance between these religions focuses on the differences. If they would focus on the similarities instead, the persecution, wars, and conflicts could be, if not eliminated, at the very least lessened to an extent where they could learn to respect beliefs and practices that differ from their own.…

Over 400 years ago, the Powhatan Indians inhabited a place called Jamestown, Virginia. Their every-day life was disrupted, though, when, in 1607, a ship carrying men from England came to claim their land, making Jamestown their new capital. This could have been seen as a bright opportunity for both parties: the Powhatan Indians could have shared their knowledge of the land they occupied, and the English could have shared some of the skills and technology brought over with them. But, of course, the two groups found that they had many differences. They had a hard time sharing and trading because of how different they were, such as in their belief systems, materials and resources, and their living environments to name a few.…

The stories Columbus, the Indians, and Human Progress and A Patriot’s History of the United States have a greater difference than they do similarities. Each story has a different tale of how Native Americans were treated by the Europeans. One story told of gallons of bloodshed, torture, enslavement, and overworked Indians, while the other one told of glorified Europeans here to help their fellow man. Even though, both stories had their differences; they do tell of a similar time in which explorers reach the New World and start to establish colonies. The explorers also tried to convert the Indian tribes to Christianity.…

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…
During the 16th and 17th centuries, when the Europeans started to come over to the new world, they discovered a society of Indians that was strikingly different to their own. To understand how different, one must first compare and contrast some of the very important differences between them, such as how the Europeans considered the Indians to be extremely primitive and basic, while, considering themselves civilized. The Europeans considered that they were model societies, and they thought that the Indians society and culture should be changed to be very similar to their own.…

The Native American have not had the easy way of obtaining land that was actually theirs to begin with. The following topics will be why the Dakota Indians have communities instead of reservations, ways that have made the Dakota historical experience different from that of the Ojibwe, and the barriers that the Dakota communities faced that were similar to the Ojibwe. Also about why treaties matter so much to the Native Americans. The Dakota Indians were forced to move many different times before they actually got settled in one place. The Dakota communities started in 1851 when the Fort Laramie Treaty gave the Dakota a ten-mile strip of land that was on both sides of the Minnesota River.…
Throughout the first chapter, what I found most interesting were the relationships and differences between the newly arrived aliens and the natives of what is now the United States. The two recognized each other as of the same species, but most of the communication efforts between the two were futile. The language of the new comers differed significantly. They had an oral dialogue and written communication, which the natives understood nothing of. I find it most interesting, because I have ancestors that trace back to both the natives and the new comers.…
