What happened to the Native Americans when the white men came? How did their trusting noble nature serve them when the whites wanted what they had? Were they naive?
What could the Native Americans done differently to survive and keep their lifestyle?
If you can answer that question you'll be on your way.

An interesting point. But I would like to raise some questions, for which I don't have answers. Is the survival of race to be pursued regardless of the means of achieving that survival? Would the Native Americans have been justified in killing thousands of white people so that their Native culture could survive? Care to discuss?
