Europeans formed alliances with First Nations primarily through diplomacy, trade, and mutual interests. They often engaged in negotiations, offering goods like metal tools, firearms, and textiles in exchange for fur, land, or military support against rival tribes. These alliances were strategic, as both parties sought to enhance their power and resources, although they sometimes led to manipulation and broken promises by the Europeans. Cultural exchanges and intermarriage also played a role in solidifying these relationships.
Fur trades were mutually beneficial for both groups of people. Fur was in high demand in Europe, and so Europeans had Native people get animal furs for them to send back to Europe and make lots of money from. Native people in return were given handy things that they had not had before, such as guns, pots and pans, etc. (They were also given things that weren't so great, like smallpox infected blankets. Not good.) Hope that helps!

After the Crusades, a European knight or traveler who had returned from the Middle East would most likely make the statement, "I am tasting sesame seeds for the first time." This experience reflects the cultural exchanges that occurred during the Crusades, where Europeans were introduced to new foods and spices from the East. Sesame seeds, commonly used in Middle Eastern cuisine, would have been unfamiliar to many Europeans at that time.
