As a colonist, the risks of losing the battle for land are very high. The land is vitally important to survival, and it would sap away hope and happiness from any colonist that was forced to uproot their family from their home. It's no surprise that many colonists tried to avoid war with the Native Americans by turning them into allies, even at the expense of giving them land rights. To protect our families and homes, we must work together in unity towards a common goal, regardless of race or background. The only thing that matters is that we want peace and prosperity for our people. It won't be easy or simple but if we work together then nothing can stop us.
A year ago, we bought a few acres of land in central Pennsylvania. The land had a long and complicated history, but that wasn't important to us. We wanted the perfect mix of forest and fields for raising horses; with water features including a large lake; and plenty of space for camping and elaborate events. The nearest town was antiquated but close enough to be convenient. It had grown up around the natural springs back when settlers first came to these woods—before there were any roads at all, out here in the middle of nowhere—and it still depended heavily on tourists visiting those springs on their way from one place to another. So some people call it "Lazy Little Town.
The Native Americans and the settlers could have lived peacefully together. As much as the settlers wanted to move west, there was always an area that was not occupied. With either side being given more space, the people would have time for acceptance and understanding. The Native Americans knew that if they gave up their land to the settlers, life would be much easier for them. If they did not give up their land, life would become harder for them in many ways. This is one reason why people say that a less dense population means fewer problems with others close by.
