Which of the following word describes the relationship between the Indians and the early settlers?
The native Americans, the people we call the "Indians" had been in America for many thousands of years before Columbus arrived in 1492. The Indians were kind to the early settlers. They taught them about the local crops like sweet potatoes, corn and peanuts. But soon the settlers wanted bigger farms and more land for themselves and their families. So the Europeans started to take the land from the Indians. Naturally, when the whites started taking all the Indians’ land, the Indians started fighting back. But the whites were stronger and cleverer, slowly they pushed the Indians into those parts of the continent that he didn’t want—the parts where it was too cold or too dry or too mountainous to live. By 1875, the Indians were living in a special place called "reservation". But even here the whites took land from them — perhaps he wanted the wood, or perhaps the land had important minerals in it, or he even wanted to make national parks there. So even on their reservations the Indians were not safe from the whites. There are many Hollywood films about the fight between the Indians and the whites. Usually in these films the Indians are bad and the whites are good and brave. But was it really like that?
