There are many reasons for that. Native Americans were not as well developed as Europeans, firstly because agriculture was much more easier in European countries, then American ones ( Europe's climate differs slightly from North American climates.) Also since domestication had happened not far from them, it easily spread. The large mass of water impeded several technologies, especially economic and agricultural ones, from reaching the America's until the arrival of European powers.

A great book i recommend if you want further readings on this, would be guns germ and steel by Jared diamond, or the film of this book by national geographic. In his book he talks of how certain societies rose independently from each other, and why some differ from others ( such as Europe and America, and why they developed slower).

Hope this helps:)
