Answer 2

The correct answer is: "a.he thinks they should try and live in peace because he desires goods to trade. "

Upon the arrival of the settlers to America, Powhatan and his people helped them survive during their first years in these lands. He thought that an alliance could be forged between them and the settlers.

However, "the starving time" occurred forcing the settlers to take Native American food supplies. This caused Powhatan to retaliate towards them. This marked the beginning of a series of conflicts that would last a couple of years. These would end in 1614.
