What is the basis for saying that the United States exterminated the Indians in the westward expansi

At that time, those who went to the United States to pan for gold and develop the United States went to the American continent, this place is the territory of the Indians, and they killed many Indians in order to fight for territory.

Because after the westward movement, the Americans seem to have occupied the land owned by the Indians, after all, the clothing of the Indians is very different from that of the Americans, so there has never been a shadow of Indians in the United States since then.

It's just that because the United States always starts wars, many people think that their intentions are still relatively bad, so they have been driving out the Indians.

The United States literally exterminated the Indians. Because now many of their descendants know about it. I also hate the Americans.

Many people who attack American history often claim that the United States "exterminated" the Indians, and their so-called evidence comes from the fact that there are said to be tens of millions of Indians in North America before the arrival of Westerners, and by 1998 there were only a million left, so it can be concluded that the United States exterminated Indians in large numbers during the westward expansion. The second so-called "corroboration" is a law in the United States at the end of the 18th century:

An Indian's scalp can be exchanged for a $50-75 bonus, so they believe that the United States has single-handedly planned the "extermination" of the Indians.

But as long as you analyze carefully, you will find that this so-called data does not stand up to scrutiny: we all know that population growth is the level of developed productivity, before the arrival of Westerners in the Americas, 80% of the economy of North American Indians depended on fishing, hunting and gathering, and the remaining 20% relied on very primitive animal husbandry and breeding, slash-and-burn farming. This level of productivity is difficult to feed even millions of people, let alone tens of millions.

Ancient China had the world's leading agricultural technology, but the population hovered at the level of tens of millions, how could the native Indians, who did not even have many bronze tools, reach the population of China?

Iron-Blooded Community.

Second, the creation of cities is the result of population growth. If there were tens of millions of people in North America (30 million to 50 million by some), then Columbus, Amerigo and others should have landed with countless villages, endless farmland, dense roads, and huge cities. But the reality is that even the capital of the tribal confederation in North America at that time (not counting the Aztec Empire in the south) had a population of only a few thousand, and there were no decent big cities at all, but there were many no-man's lands, such as the Louisiana region.

If there were millions, tens of millions of people in North America, that would never have happened. Therefore, around 1500, the total population of North America will not exceed one million, and there are tens of millions of indigenous people who do not care at all.

Third, the United States** did issue a decree to reward Indians for killing, but what era was that? At that time, most of the thirteen states in North America had conflicts with the Indians in their territory, and the land conflict was the most serious of them, and the military strength of the United States was not superior to the Indians, so it had to pass this kind of decree to alleviate the unfavorable situation of confrontation. In the later westward movement, the Americans relied on their economic advantages to gradually occupy the western states, squeezing out the Indians again and again, rather than relying on mass killings to solve the problem, but the barbaric Indian tribes were very fond of scalping whites.

The fact that the Indians now make up a small percentage of the total population of the United States is due to the influx of immigrants into the United States in the century, and their absolute numbers have actually increased.

The American "Westward Movement" killed most of the Indians, leaving only a few.

The United States was a particularly cruel country, and its westward expansion nearly wiped out the Indians.

America's westward expansion nearly wiped out the American Indians.

The westward expansion of the United States killed many Indians. So much so that now the number of Indians is small.

This is not documented, but it is definitely a huge number.

There should be no statistics on the number of people, after all, the United States, as a superpower, is unwilling to admit how many Indians he has killed.

The westward expansion of the United States killed many Indians, mainly in an attempt to seize land with the Indians.

Kill an Indian for 50-100 dollars. Money talks.

America's westward expansion was bloody and brutal, and nearly wiped out the Indians.

Tens of millions, basically going to be killed, it's really miserable.

It starts at Fortbridge, climbs west over the Washachi Mountains, passes south of Utah's Great Salt Lake, traverses the Salt Lake Desert, and finally joins Nevada on the traditional route to California.

It is certainly not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to describe it with the word "extermination".

Because the Indians were very independent, they found that they could gain the most from the long process of self-domination.

Because the colonizers' management and development of North America inevitably clashed with the survival interests of the local Indians, and there was a generational gap between the colonial civilization and the Indian civilization. So the barbarism of the self-proclaimed civilization took place in the dealings of the colonists with the Indians.

We all know that the Indians are the native inhabitants of the Americas, and since Columbus discovered the New World, the Americas have faced a terrible genocide. The Indians, however, were mercilessly exploited by the invaders ......

After the independence of the United States, their wolf ambition and revenge mentality were particularly obvious, and the westward expansion movement was a very obvious example, and the background of the westward expansion movement of the United States had two mature conditions, one was the social situation at that time, and the other was the domestic situation of the United States at that time.

With the progress of the westward movement, countless indigenous peoples began to suffer greatly, the United States said that they would provide agricultural support to the Indians, help them achieve a well-off life, and let them look at their land, not to sell it casually, all this seems to be very sincere and friendly, but in fact the Americans want to really control the Indians.

They wanted to seize the land of the Indians, but not everyone bought it, at that time a man named Georgia openly gave 10,000 square kilometers of land to local slaves to plant, and then the states followed suit, this series of actions caught Washington off guard, and later with Washington's **, the Indians also took advantage of the situation into the arms of the United Kingdom, and participated in the hostilities against the United States.

At that time, the United States said that if the Indians stopped us from grabbing the land, we would kill them, or even kill them all, which shows how vicious they were at that time, and then they designed to let the Indians unknowingly give up the land, which is all too obvious, and also let the Indians see through the tricks of the United States, they began to resist but were quickly suppressed.

Jefferson openly declared that either all the Indians would be wiped out, or they would be driven to places where the whites could not reach, and said that there would be a reward for killing the Indians, and this series of measures made the Indians completely lose their land and become vagrants with nothing overnight.

In order to obtain the land of the Indians, the United States initially pretended to be a preferential policy for the benefit of the people, but after the Indians saw through it, they used force to suppress and plunder the land of the Indians.

Only you can't think of it, you can't do it without them, at that time, the United States did a lot of shameful things, such as killing an Indian to get a reward from the United States.

In the law of the jungle, the strong will use all kinds of means to grab what they want, and the United States uses diplomatic means to seize the land of the Indians.

They used a reward system to make others kill an Indian, and constantly let him be genocided.

The Americans wanted to get the land of the Indians, and in order to get the land, they did not hesitate to exterminate all the Indians, drive them to places where the whites could not see, and said that whoever killed the Indians had a prize.

The answer was to launch a westward war, inflicting heavy losses on the main indigenous force at the Battle of Little Giant Horn, and then the cowboys marched westward to break up the indigenous resistance with the Jin Yuan politics and colonial farming.

burning, killing and plundering, they did the same, and even they encircled and suppressed the Indians, forced them to relocate many times, etc., which was very cruel.

Using a strategy that is actually good for the Indians, but has another purpose, the United States is doing the actual action of seizing their land under the false slogan of supporting the Indians, which is really bad.

Hey, if you fall behind, you will be beaten, which is really good. At that time, in terms of social development and cultural and technological level, the Indians could not fight the United States**, and in the end they could only become colonized and suffer blood and tears.

Americans are reluctant to mention history? The concept itself is problematic.

As someone who has been studying in the United States for 7 years. The United States teaches this history of the expulsion (burning) of the Indians in great detail.

Also relatively objective. From the current point of view, America is indeed a place rich in resources, but it has been plundered by the Spaniards.

At that time, the Americas were really a place that Westerners didn't want to go to, and the construction resources were unknown (very little).

So the United States started by plundering, and you can see that they did plunder. But from a construction point of view.

They started their own business from a place where they had nothing and were stared at by others.

The United States has reconciled with the Indians, and Australia has reconciled with the indigenous population...

You can't look at what people did hundreds of years ago from a modern point of view.

When Qin Shi Huang conquered the Baiyue region, the Mongols of the Yuan Dynasty made many expeditions to the west, did they not shed blood? In Mongolia, there was also a saying that all men taller than the wheel were killed, but fortunately, someone persuaded the Mongol Great Khan that people could farm and pay taxes, so it was not implemented.

If there was no Qin Shi Huang and no Yuan Dynasty emperor, would China's territory be so large today? There were n wars between the countries of Europe in order to expand their territory...

Later, when mankind progressed, it was discovered that it was possible to develop the economy without relying on aggression, and it knew the harm of aggression, so it stopped using violence to colonize and develop by aggression.

But you are now speaking of the aggression of others from a modern point of view ... It's as if you use a modern point of view to accuse primitive people of eating animal meat for being unhygienic.

As the so-called time and time, European adventurers discovered the New World and then colonized, it was all this routine, but now people have progressed and no longer use it... Britain, Spain, Portugal, etc., which country did not shed blood in the colonies in order to completely subdue the natives? The local natives obediently give up their land to you for development?

Do you think it's possible? Of course, it is definitely not possible to do this now, but people back then did not expect so much, and the whole world played like this, it is difficult to say whether it is right or wrong.

Not only the United States, but also the prosperity of Western countries today is the result of their plundering of the wealth of the East.

Yes, the West was originally started by bandits.
