Content: The Europeans ventured to the New World in a quest for gold, land, and also animal skin. They believed that with the over-whelming amount of land that was newly discovered there was certainly room for them. The Europeans found this very justifiable as they knew there land that was conquerable with their advancement in technology such as guns. Also, the Europeans saw North America as a great opportunity to transform people to Christianity. How did generational differences between white settlers and Wampanoag affect the outcome of colonization? Examine the differences between Massasoit and his son, Philip, as well as Edward Winslow and his son, Josiah. The differences between the white settlers and Wampanoag people made it both difficult to trade, but also good for both civilizations as they were able to benefit from the new goods afforded to each of them. The Wampanoag people were able to benefit from the surplus of guns they received, while the white settlers were able to send the animal skins they received back to Europe to benefit the commerce there. Massasoit was more of an elder, during his time of superiority, than his son Phillip which meant he got a lot more respect from the Wampanoag people. Phillip lacked the decision making skills his father had as he was sort of forced into duty with the death of Massasoit.
