The First Nations that first met the vikings between 500 and 10 000 years ago included The Mi'kmaqs, The Haudenosaunee and The Mountagnais. Both First Nations poeples and Europeans were surprised to meet people that seemed so difffrent from themselves so they decided to get along because they wanted to know each other better and not get themselves in stupid idiot wars.
The Vikings are Europeans and it was people of Asian descent that discovered Canada first.
The arrival of Europeans had profound and often devastating effects on First Nations. Indigenous populations faced significant disruptions to their social structures, economies, and cultures due to colonization, disease, and conflict. Many First Nations experienced drastic declines in population due to diseases introduced by Europeans, for which they had no immunity. Additionally, European land claims and resource exploitation led to the loss of traditional territories and sovereignty, severely impacting their way of life.
First Nations' perspectives on Europeans varied widely among different tribes and regions. Initially, some viewed Europeans as potential allies or trade partners, appreciating the new goods and technologies they brought. However, as European colonization progressed, many Indigenous groups experienced encroachment on their lands, broken treaties, and violent conflicts, leading to deep mistrust and resentment towards Europeans. Overall, their views were shaped by both interactions and the consequences of European settlement.
