Native Americans in North America after 1763
Native Americans and European nations during the seventeenth century lived peacefully in such a manner that it was impossible to believe that this peace coexistence would be disrupted after the end of French and Indian War in 1763. The War of League of Augsburg and the War of Spanish Succession were fought in late seventeenth and early eighteenth century respectively in order to gain power, wealth and lands in the eastern part of North America. After the end of these two wars, the Treaty of Utrecht was signed and it brought political and economical stability in the region and brought the era of Long Peace.
British colonies flourished during this time and enjoyed political stability. During this time, each of the colonies enjoyed its own form of government. Colonists were normally engaged in agricultural activities and were independent farmers. Furthermore, they had their own land and also had voting rights (Henretta et.al, 100). Tea, rum, sugar, cups, plates and other accessories that were previously restricted to the elites, were now being enjoyed by every individual. During this time, British America witnessed a growth in population as Germans, English and Irish citizens settled in these colonies.

Many previous authors have advocated that traditional mental health treatments be modified to better match clients' cultural contexts."

Native Americans Transition From Freedom to Isolation America's history since 1865 to date is a remarkable record of various accounts of despair, hope, triumph, and tragedy. The country's history consists of some compelling transformations with one of these significant accounts being the battle between Americans and Americans in the final period of the Civil War.

Native Americans Before Christopher Columbus discovered the United States of America, and people from all over the globe including Europe, Asia and Africa migrate to inhabit the New World, it was already home to a group of people. This group of people is known as Native Americans or American Indians. These Native Americans lived as hunter-gatherer societies, with tribes living on pieces of lands as a community, using them for agriculture.
American Indian Studies Native American Storytelling The group of people known as the Native Americans or American Indians are the native residents of the Northern and Southern American continents who are thought to have traveled across the Bering land bridge from Asia.

Native Americans A strong connection between the Iroquois and the framers of the U.S. Constitution is now considered to be a historical fact.
