During the 17th century, this Native American group organized a union so strong that they forced the Anglo settlers in their areas to work with other bands of natives to exploit the fur trade. Led by James Oglethorpe, this colony was settled for military and philanthropic reasons.

Answer:

The Powhatan Indians

Step-by-step explanation:

The native Indians which helped the settlers in Virginia from the disaster were the Powhatan Indians. With the English, the Powhatan Indians traded food and furs in exchange for European metal tools and copper along with European glass beads. Native Indians helped the settlers in giving food as the settlers were not engaged in farming.
