>never created any sophisticated culture, didn't build permanent structures, didn't develop advanced science of any kind, basically hunters-gatherers at a very primitive stage of development
>the world knows more about their life than about highly advanced cultures of South America, India or Africa, because they happened to live on the land conquered by the Anglos and became main characters of countless books and movies popular across the world
they actually had tons of agricultural civilizations but for unknown reasons lots of them died out from 1200-1500 AD. All of the tribes that Americans and colonials interacted with are the barbarian tribes that destroyed the old civilizations
The largest one in north america I believe died out due to shitty weather.
Juan Lee
great people America belongs to the natives
Aaron Wood
the so-called Native American massacre is fake and gay, even if real, those injuns deserved it.
Samuel Butler
ok abo
Kevin Butler
No because then I'd have to either live with you or in Britain or France and fuck that
Kayden White
davido kun please go home
Christopher Taylor
>give land back to the natives >hundreds of tribes start warring again great idea guys
Oliver Myers
Quads of abo seething
Kevin Reed
You know they’re essentially the same people as their Mesoamerican equivalents right? The guy in your picture is basically what old, native Mexican men look like minus the long hair.
Daniel Hill
>they actually had tons of agricultural civilizations but for unknown reasons lots of them died out from 1200-1500 AD
why didn't they build any permanent structures, stone buildings etc. then?
face it, the world knows about them only because the US dominates it culturally
no one can list 5 tribes of Andamanese people, Nigerian Bantu people, Australian Aboriginal people, but everyone knows names of at least 5 Native American tribes simply because everyone has to consume American culture.
Aaron Ross
Ever heard of the mound builders? Pretty cool and not very widely known stuff.
Do nations ahve obligation to some higher principle or power to create sophisticated culture, build perment buildings and davelop advanced science?
David Sanders
no, but it would be nice if i didn't have to learn about them at school then
Sebastian Garcia
>why didn't they build any permanent structures, stone buildings etc. then? Neither did the chinese mostly apart from exceptions like the great wall and the terracotta warriors. A lot of their architecture was wooden and was rebuilt a lot.
Colton Ward
I'm a real naijin, I'm pretty sure almost all *** massacres in history are overly exaggerated, fake and gay, atrocity propaganda.
>but everyone knows names of at least 5 Native American tribes The only reason I can name two or three off the top of my head is because I play Europa Universalis.
Jacob Clark
You're still right about your no stone or surviving structures statement though.
Native Americans were actually pretty impressive. Hundreds of years of painting them as unsophisticated savages was entirely based on needing some kind of justification for killing them off. >inb4 this retard believes in the noble savage myth They weren’t perfect and obviously had flaws, but treating them like animals was completely unjustified.
William Anderson
We only learned about the high profile massacres.
Dominic Jenkins
won't happen any time soon, we did a pretty good job at decimating them, the final nail for them is mixed marriages killing them off.
Only people that have been sent to camps, slowly being genocide and getting replace by immigrants and haven't gone full Jow Forums even though they deserve to.
I don't think so, you are thinking too much in western terms. Their warfare was semi ritualistic in terms of who is killed, who is taking captive, how to treat them, etc. Since they where a hunter and gathering society compared to german barbarians and celtic tribes that had villages, warfare was very different. It created a very different society, mainly how they dealt with diplomacy with each other.
Ethan Garcia
> because I play Europa Universalis.
Exactly. Why do you think there are no Bantu or Aboriginal tribes as playable nations in EU, even though they put up plucky resistance against the European conquerors? Simply because no one knows about them, because they weren't popularized by the American pop culture.
>Native Americans were actually pretty impressive.
If they really were, they would have created complex political structures, statehood, empires and were not just a loose confederation of primitive tribes with no permanent settlements.
Modern Americans just make shit up about the Natives just to make the books and movies more interesting (so they could sell more of them).
If all of North America was conquered by the French, no one would know anything about the Natives except that some primitive people had lived there before the French conquest but were wiped off the earth afterwards.
How many of you know anything about Bantu tribes that lived in French colonies? Names of tribes? Their achievements? Political organization?
Isaac Hughes
I know about the cherokee, sioux and that friendly one in that leonardo di caprio movie
>If all of North America was conquered by the French, no one would know anything about the Natives Why wouldn't we?
Josiah Evans
also to add Abos didn't even discover the bow
Native Americans were signifigantly more advanced than abos as many of them had agriculture even if they were seminomadic
Jace Cooper
>they would have created complex political structures, statehood, empires The thing is that those big states fell before the Europeans arrived. We don't know much at all about the cities the built. I mean, we don't even know that much of the people who made the nazca lines and some of the works they made are amazing.

how much do you know about Bantu tribes from Congo?
Same thing for the mayan empire and a small city state confederation in south america (pre-cursor of the incas-i forgot its name) got fucked up by climate change. It is amazing how american empires where very tied, more than anywhere else i think, to climate change in terms of growth and expansion.

Carter Allen
A jap would say that. Re Nanjing, rapist scum.
Brayden Hill
Native Americans were important for the American identity, how many books did Americans write about africa. Americans before the 20th century?
Carson James
there isn't just a lot that has survived to even judge its worth, their golden age happened way before the Europeans arrived and collapsed was incredibly hasten due to outside forces to even continue to develop.
>they actually had tons of agricultural civilizations but for unknown reasons lots of them died out from 1200-1500 AD. All of the tribes that Americans and colonials interacted with are the barbarian tribes that destroyed the old civilizations Viking genes did this. They spread in the native american farm*id and transformed them into hunter gatherer chads.
Ryder Cook
Kys goblino Abos actually had agriculture for eels.
Carter Walker
aren't you that abo that was too assblasted to respond to my quads of truth earlier?
Fact: Karl May never left Germany. Fact: His books are a romantic allegory about German supremacy and how the good Germans (Old Shatterhand) civilize the savage Slavs (the Apache).
