A majority of the settlers not only brought diseases because of their filth (that the Indians were not immune to), but also brought starvation and poverty due to their greed for fashionable animal skins, greed for unique Indian possessions, and introduction of alchoholic beverage to the Indians. To the Indians the Americans were greedy and selfish barbarians who came to destroy them and take their land. Incidentally, scalping was also introduced by the British during the French and Indian war as a means of verification that the Indians were doing their job of killing the French.
Slavery was a significant point of conflict between American settlers and the Mexican government because, after gaining independence from Spain, Mexico abolished slavery in 1829. Many American settlers who migrated to Texas, attracted by land grants, brought enslaved people with them, directly contradicting Mexican laws. This tension over the institution of slavery contributed to growing dissatisfaction among settlers, ultimately leading to the Texas Revolution and the subsequent annexation of Texas by the United States. The differing views on slavery highlighted the broader sectional tensions that would later escalate into the Civil War.
Many Americans believed that the British were supporting Tecumseh, the Shawnee leader, because of the growing tensions between American settlers and Native American tribes in the Northwest Territory. Tecumseh had sought to unify various tribes to resist American expansion, and his alliance with the British during the War of 1812 fueled suspicions. Additionally, the British were seen as a potential ally for Native Americans in their efforts to protect their lands from American encroachment. This belief contributed to American hostility towards both Tecumseh and British forces during the conflict.

The conflict in the Northwest Territory was primarily driven by competition between American settlers and Native American tribes over land and resources. As settlers moved westward, they encroached on Indigenous territories, leading to tensions and violent confrontations. The U.S. government's policies, including treaties that were often not honored, further exacerbated the situation, as Native Americans sought to defend their land and sovereignty against increasing American expansion. This culminated in a series of conflicts known as the Northwest Indian Wars in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

George Washington recognized the complexities of the conflicts between Native Americans and settlers, often advocating for a policy of assimilation and land negotiations. He believed that peaceful coexistence could be achieved through treaties and the promotion of agriculture among Native tribes. However, Washington's administration also supported westward expansion, leading to military actions against Native Americans when negotiations failed. Ultimately, this dual approach contributed to ongoing tensions and the loss of Native lands.

Sources of conflict between English settlers and French settlers included language, culture, and religion.
