What are two ways that Disney's version of Pocahontas is the same as the real story of Pocahontas?
Disney's version of Pocahontas shares some similarities with the real story, such as the central figure of Pocahontas, a Native American woman from the Powhatan tribe, and her interactions with English settlers, particularly John Smith. Both versions highlight the themes of cultural exchange and conflict between Native Americans and Europeans. Additionally, Pocahontas's role in promoting peace and understanding between the two groups is a key element in both the film and historical accounts. However, it's important to note that Disney's portrayal significantly romanticizes and alters many aspects of the true story.

Because the real story is never told. Many people have taken the story by Smith and turned it into cartoons and movies. He never met her and lied in a book he wrote after she died. She was held hostage by the colonists for 4 years and became a Christian changing her name to Rebecca. When John Rolfe came to Jamestown with his tobacco seeds he also married Pocahontas and they left for England. She had a baby boy there and died about age 19. Her grave is in England. Her real story is so much better than the silly legend told about her.
