Settlers believed that Native Americans could be assimilated into their culture through education, conversion to Christianity, and the promotion of European agricultural practices. They often viewed Native cultures as inferior and thought that by exposing Indigenous peoples to Western ways of life, they could encourage them to adopt settler customs and values. This process was frequently enforced through policies that aimed to erase Native identities and traditions. Ultimately, settlers envisioned a transformation that would integrate Native Americans into a Euro-American societal framework.
