Europeans traded various weapons with First Nations, including firearms such as muskets and rifles, along with ammunition. They also exchanged knives, hatchets, and other metal tools that were valuable for hunting and warfare. These weapons significantly altered Indigenous hunting practices and intertribal dynamics. The introduction of these technologies often had profound impacts on First Nations societies, including shifts in power and territorial conflicts.
The fur trade did not so much change Canada, as create Canada. Furs were the first resource sold internationally, the first "gold" that brought Europeans, and then the world to Canada.
The slave trade? The Europeans.
First Nations peoples utilized a variety of weapons and tools for combat, including bows and arrows, spears, and later firearms acquired through trade. They also employed traditional strategies such as ambush tactics and guerilla warfare to leverage their knowledge of the terrain. Additionally, some groups used clubs and knives made from stone or bone, reflecting their resourcefulness and adaptation to their environments. Each nation had unique methods and styles of warfare influenced by their culture and available resources.
very mean wepons. you should not use them on your self
Because they held religious beliefs that prohibited contact with foreigners
The first nations helped the Europeans because it was good to trade with them to get metals for fur.
Europeans traded with First Nations to obtain goods such as furs, fish, and other natural resources that were valuable in Europe. In return, First Nations received goods like metal tools, weapons, and cloth that were not readily available in their own communities. This exchange of goods allowed both groups to access items they needed or desired.
First Nations and early Europeans found common ground in trade and mutual benefit. Indigenous peoples were intrigued by European goods, such as metal tools and weapons, while Europeans sought valuable resources like furs. Additionally, both groups engaged in cooperative relationships for survival, navigating the challenges of new environments. However, these interactions were complex and often led to misunderstandings and conflict over land and resources.

The Europeans gave them things such as metal pots, knives, guns, etc. The First Nations gave them medicine, fur, and showed them how to build canoes, and helped them build maps, etc.
European explorers traded goods such as beads, cloth, metal tools, and weapons with the First Nations in exchange for furs, food, and other resources. This trade allowed both groups to acquire goods that were not readily available in their own regions.
It's generally agreed that the arrival of European settlers was of no benefit to the First Nations. They lost their land and often their lives too because of warfare, through starvation or most usually through diseases brought by Europeans, to which they had no resistance.
The Europeans benefited from the slave trade more so than the Africans. Europeans traded mainly weapons to Africans, in which they sold their own people as slaves.
we can visit old forts that were established. YAY! land treaties determined stuff :) :)
Europeans first embark on exploration to the East as they looked for trade routes
