We talked about Chrisopher Columbus, and that he "rediscoved" America. He also said in his diary that he could force the indians to do whatever he wanted.
Also the Aztecs, and that when Cortez came to America, they thought that Cortez was a God and they accepted him.
The Navajo Indians lived in the southern U.S., and lived off the land. When the Spanish came asking about the city of gold, they helped the Spanish.
The Iroque Indians were more like the Europeans because they cleared land for settlements and they had a very sophisticated government.
The French and Indian War was between the French and the British, and the British won. But that put the British in major debt, so they taxed the colonists heavily, and that set up the Revolutionary War.Then we watched the video, America The Story of Us.
