Beothuk was the name of the First Nations people living on the island of Newfoundland at the time of first contact with Europeans. They are thought to have been of Algonkian origin. Their population has been estimated at between 500 and 1,000. Whatever 'government' they might have had would have existed mainly in First Nations traditions. Their main population centre was at the head of the Exploits River. This location also became a major focal point of European settlement, which inevitably led to conflict. Europeans had two things that killed the Beothuk in large numbers: guns and disease. The First Nations people did not have a natural resistance to European diseases, such as smallpox and tuberculosis, and they died in large numbers. During conflicts between the Beothuk and Europeans, the advantage Europeans had with weapons dealt an enormous blow to the Beothuk. The last known Beothuk was Shanawdithit. She was born about 1800, and died on June 6, 1829. With her death, the Beothuk officially became extinct, although there are indications that some Beothuk were absorbed into other First Nations people who had recently settled in parts of Newfoundland.
SHe was the last Beothuk, a group of Indians who died out by the 19th century mostly due to first contact wit hthe Europeans.
The politically incorrect term 'red indians' was used in the past to differentiate between people of the First Nations and South Asian people. The use of the term is nowadays considered to be insulting and is discouraged.
Shawanadithit was the last of the Beothuk Indians. The beothuks were a semi-nomadic group of people who lived along the coast of Newfoundland (southern) and hunted caribou. They were the hunted too, though. English and French fought over the Beothuk'sterritories and killed many of them. Shawnadithit was the last of these natives. She died of tuberculosis in 1829.
The national government can mean the president, the House, the Senate, Congress, or the Supreme Court. National government can also refer to the combination of all parts of the government.

There is no record of the language(s) spoken by the ancient Beothuk people.
The Europeans did, John Cabot set up fisheries by the later named coast of Newfoundland and they invaded the Beothuk and killed most of the Beothuk people. The last recorded Beothuk was Nacny Shanawdithit who died in Europe in 1829. It had nothing to do with WW2 you idiot!
The Beothuk tribe, indigenous to Newfoundland, did not create any significant inventions as their culture was more focused on survival and traditional ways of living. They were known for their distinctive red ochre body paint and bark wigwam shelters.

Newfoundland, but they do not live there anymore. The only Beothuk DNA left on the planet is in Iceland.
