Settlers often did not adapt to native customs and traditions due to a combination of ethnocentrism, a belief in their own cultural superiority, and a desire to impose their own values and systems. Many settlers viewed indigenous practices as primitive or inferior, leading to a lack of interest in understanding or integrating those customs. Additionally, the settlers' goals of land acquisition and resource exploitation often conflicted with the values of coexistence and respect for native traditions. This cultural divide contributed to the tensions and conflicts that arose between settlers and indigenous populations.
