Different Perspectives of Colonialism.

When the English came into the New World, they were surprised to see that there were already people inhabiting the land. They at first established their colonies and started to gain resources to survive. They then realized that the Native American's where inhabiting the land in which the settlers needed the resources. They then asked the Natives to sign a treaty in which the Natives would be giving up the land to the colonists. The Natives, however, could not understand the contract and assumed that both settlements would be sharing the land. They soon learned that this was not the case as some hunters were shot and killed by the English for trespassing their territories. The English kept pushing them off their land until there was no other place to push them at, where then they shipped them off tot eh West Indies. This is where there were more African Slaves coming in then, then there were Natives being shipped out. This kind of colonialism is a one where the English are pretty much saying "Go away, this is not your land anymore, it is ours". There are also modern examples of this kind of colonialism called "Settler's Colonialism". One modern example would be the crisis in Ukraine and Russia. Russia is trying to invade and take over Ukraine after the impeachment of Ukraine's president. They are not trying to push the people of Ukraine away, but more of a 'We take you over and you come join our civilization", which is a Colonial Imperative. These kinds of colonialism can happen at any time period and has happened in the past, is happening in the present, and will occur in the future.
