American Indians.
The colonists in Maryland were not nice to the Native Americans. The Native Americans taught the colonists how to grow crops, hunt, fish, and travel on water. The colonists did not help the Native Americans socially or economically.
Native Americans called themselves by their tribe (i.e. Cherokee, Powatan, Lakota, etc.) When Christopher Columbus arrived, he erroneously believed he was in the Indies, so he declared them "Indians".
The theft of food by starving English colonists strained the alliances between the English colonists and the Native Americans. The settlers also began to struggle with the Native Americans for control over the land where the colonies were located.
The land did not belong to the colonists. They came over here and claimed the land as theirs. If some people came over to your house and started living there without your permission, whose house is it? I believe that the Native Americans believed that they (the Indians) belonged to the land rather then the land belonged to them.
Metacomet was the person who decided that the Native Americans had to untie against the colonists. He was the leader of the Wampanoag Indians.
