Explanation:
In New Spain, relations between settlers and Native Americans were marked by the settlers’
efforts to convert natives to European culture. These tensions culminated in the Pueblo
Revolt of 1680, led by the shaman Popé. After this attack, allied Pueblo towns kept the
Spanish out of New Mexico for thirteen years. In 1693, to reestablish control over the
territory, New Mexico’s Spanish governor, Don Diego de Vargas, deployed 160 troops to
Santa Fe. After taking the city, the Spanish troops killed all of the Native American men and
enslaved the women and children. After another revolt by the Pueblos in 1696, the settlers
and natives were able to live in relative peace because the Spanish eased requirements for

Explanation:
Relations between English colonists and Native Americans varied greatly, but conflicting
concepts of land ownership led to much tension between the two groups. The English
thought that they should obtain the rights to land from the English Crown, not from the
natives, and they justified their incursions with the legal concept of vacuum domicilium,
meaning that unoccupied lands were free for the taking. After struggles between the

This statement is false. In 1675, the Native American leader Metacom mobilized
Algonquians against
the English settlers, attacking fifty-two colonial towns. However, by
the next year, the English colonial
government was able to turn back the attack with the aid
of the Mohawks. After the war, all Native
Americans in southern New England were made
to live in praying towns, where they worked as servants or tenant farmers for their

Four Spanish settlements or missions can be found in areas within the French land claims:

Explanation:
The colonies section of the map displays territorial boundaries and each colony’s date of
foundation. Compare this to the French portion of the map, which displays trading forts, or
the Spanish area of settlement, which shows missions, and you can draw the conclusion
that British settlers came to North America to establish new states. They didn’t come, in
other words, to trade with Native Americans or even to convert them. Rather, they came to
build a new English society in what they assumed to be unoccupied territory. Employing the
legal concept of vacuum domicilium, British settlers asserted their rights to lands that were
unoccupied. The British did not acknowledge Native Americans’ conceptions of land use—
that it might be used but could not be individually owned—which, in their minds, justified the
appropriation of the land and establishment of new societies. In turn, Native Americans in

Great Lakes, and inland rivers. Compare this to the British portion of the map, which displays
thirteen newly established colonies, or the Spanish area of settlement, which shows
missions, and you can draw the conclusion that the French came to North America to trade
with native peoples. Rather than driving native peoples from the land or trying to exploit their
labor, the French sent traders to establish posts where they might trade with Native
Americans. Like the Spanish, French missionaries did try to convert Native Americans to
Catholicism, but only after learning their languages and finding common cultural ground.

The Spanish section of the map displays a series of missions and settlements,

America to convert native Americans to Christianity and exploit their labor. Like the French,
the Spanish sent missionaries among native peoples to convert them. Unlike the French,
Spanish missionaries did not attempt to learn native languages or find common cultural
ground. Rather, they attempted to force Native Americans to assimilate to Spanish culture.
The Spanish mission served as the hub of such efforts, being the administrative and

its own internal unity, independence, and rights to land. The American Revolution fractured

How did the American Revolution impact the Iroquois?
The Iroquois Confederacy sought to remain separate from a conflict that they saw as only
a matter between the British and the American colonists, and therefore the tribes did not fight
on either side.
The tribes of the Iroquois Confederacy remained united during the conflict as they
aligned and fought with the British against the American colonists.
The Iroquois Confederacy could not maintain unity and split during the conflict, as some
sought to align with the British while others fought on the side of the American colonists.
