Question

2. Support Ideas with Evidence What evidence in this lesson supports the

idea that Native Americans were not opposed to early interactions with
French settlers?

Answer 1

The French trappers and hunters were not looking to take over the lands that the Natives were living on. During this time, they were more interested in running a profitable trade with the Natives than actually subjugating those who were already living there. This led to a friendly coexistence during the early colonization period.
