Europeans sought to live on land occupied by First Nations primarily for economic reasons, including the pursuit of resources such as fur, timber, and agricultural land. They believed in the concept of manifest destiny, which held that they were destined to expand and civilize new territories. Additionally, European powers aimed to establish colonies to enhance their political and military influence. This often led to conflict and displacement of Indigenous peoples, as their rights and ways of life were disregarded.
The first nations helped the Europeans because it was good to trade with them to get metals for fur.
they traded and it was cool
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.
First Nations taught Europeans various survival skills, such as hunting, fishing, and foraging, which were essential for adapting to the North American environment. They shared knowledge of local plants and medicines, which helped Europeans navigate their new surroundings. This exchange was often motivated by a desire for trade, cooperation, and mutual benefit in a rapidly changing world. Additionally, some First Nations aimed to establish alliances to protect their interests against colonial encroachment.
