What happened to the relationship between the Native Americans and the colonists after the French and Indian War?

The relationship between Native American societies and European colonists (and later U.S. Americans) changed depending upon the time period of interaction, the specific indigenous society in question, the U.S. policy towards Native Americans, and Supreme Court decisions. The term "Native American" is one created by the United States that is both a racial and political identity. This is due to the fact that Native American societies entered into political treaties with the United States that recognized their political status as sovereign nations. Europeans generally viewed Native Americans (and other non-Europeans) as inferior to themselves, in large part because Europeans were overwhelmingly Christian and non-Europeans were considered "heathens" and "uncivilized." Nevertheless, early interactions revealed that Native American societies in New England weren't technologically inferior to European colonists and that the relative positions of each were closer than commonly believed. The diets of Native Americans were often more nutrionally balanced than those of Europeans. The use of indigenous foods in European societies greatly improved their health and lives. Some major foods were maize (corn), beans, squash, tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, avocados, and various berries. It is estimated that over half of the foods commonly used today are of Native American origin. One major reason Native American societies came under the influence of Europeans is the widespread decimation of their societies due to European diseases that Native Americans did not have immunity against. Upwards of 90 percent of Native Americans (depending on the society) fell victim to diseases. This created political advantages for European colonists and neighboring indigenous nations. U.S. policy towards Native Americans is commonly delineated into several periods: Coexistence (1789-1820s) Removal and Reservations (1830s-1880s) Assimilation (1880s-1932) Reorganization (1932-1945) Termination (1946-1960s) Self-determination (1960s-present) Note that the four middle periods are associated with genocide. Apart from the "Commerce Clause" in the U.S. Constitution, Native American political autonomy, or "tribal sovereignty", was shaped by several Supreme Court decisions that defined Native American societies as independent nations to a status of "domestic dependent nations." It was further shaped by acts of Congress: "The Marshall Trilogy" Johnson v. McIntosh Cherokee Nation v. Georgia Worcester v. Georgia Indian Removal Act Indian Appropriations Act of 1871 United States v. Kagama The General Allotment Act of 1887 or the "Dawes Act" Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 or the "Snyder Act" The Wheeler-Howard Indian Reorganization Act Termination policy Indian Civil Rights Act Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe Self-Determination policy Indian Child Welfare Act Duro v. Reina Today, the United States maintain its plenary power over indigenous societies. U.S. citizenship was unilaterally extended to Native Americans in 1924. Although the U.S. Consitution states that U.S. Congress is to direct relations with Native American nations, this has been delegated to the executive branch within the Department of the Interior through the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Many indigenous societies exercise a degree of political autonomy but is subject to the approval of federal bureaucratic power. This is referred to as "government-to-government relations." Religious beliefs and imperial expansionism motivated the United States to occupy Native American lands across the continent and justify genocide. Native Americans often entered treaties under duress that surrendered their lands to the United States in exchange for guaranteed smaller land bases (reservations), the U.S. protection, and other federal obligations (such as education, healthcare, etc.). However, the United States government has broken all treaties made with Native American nations. The acquisition of natural resources for agriculture and mining led to U.S. incursions. In fact, some present-day Native American governments were created by the United States for the explicit purpose of acquiring these resources, often at the expense of Native American ecosystems, traditional lifeways and social systems. Today, Native Americans are largely patriotic and participate at higher rates proportionally in the U.S. military than most other racial groups. Other Native Americans wish to pursue decolonization at varying degrees as a way to preserve their cultures and societies. Overall, the relationship between Native American nations and the United States is imbalanced with the U.S. imposing its hegemony over Native American nations as colonial occupiers. Native American nations are treated as subordinate, though individual Native Americans are guaranteed the same individual liberties and rights as any other American citizen.

How did native Americans and early explorers interact and preseived Explain?

Native Americans and early explorers had varying interactions, ranging from peaceful trade and cooperation to conflict and violence. Early explorers often viewed Native Americans through the lens of their own culture and values, which sometimes led to misunderstandings and hostility. Native Americans, in turn, perceived the explorers as invaders encroaching on their land and resources.
