Question

What demands did the colonists in this region place on the American Indians who lived there?

Answer 1

I believe the answer is: Fur

The native american was used to using animal fur as the main material for their furniture and their clothing.
Since the 19th century, fur was really popular among upper middleclass people in europe and north America as a fashionable trend. This make European colonies see this as opportunity and decided to obtained a huge amount of fur from the natives.

Answer 2

Demands that the colonists placed on the American Indians who lived there were as under:

1. Accepting Christianity as their religion

2. Helping the English people to grow the crops of tobacco, rice and cotton because colonists didn't know the methods to grow these crops.

3. Colonists needed furs and skins for exports that is why they demanded the natives to provide them with skins and fur.

Refusal to these demands could result in the removal of natives from their lands.
