Native Americans in colonial wars and the Revolutionary War
Definition(s)
- European expansion in the North American continent precipitated violent conflict. However, because European empires in America were weak and Native Americans were organized into relatively small, autonomous political units, wars during the colonial period did not usually erupt along the stereotypical lines of “Indians” against “whites.” Instead, conflict on a significant scale usually involved a coalition of Europeans and indigenous peoples against a similar alliance between Europeans and a different group of Native Americans.
