Early Alliances Unravel

Early Alliances Unravel is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 4: Cooperation and Conflict in California myWorld Interactive, Grade 5.

Key Concepts

Initial interactions between English colonists and Native Americans were often marked by cooperation . Facing a difficult and unfamiliar environment, colonists relied on Native Americans for food, survival skills, and trade. In return, many Native American groups sought European goods, such as metal tools and firearms, and sometimes formed alliances with the newcomers against rival tribes.

This early period of mutual benefit did not last. The primary source of tension was the fundamental disagreement over land ownership . English colonists believed in private property that could be bought, sold, and permanently fenced off. In contrast, most Native American societies viewed land as a communal resource to be used, not owned, by the tribe. As the colonial population grew, their demand for more land led to increasing pressure on Native territories.
