The conflict between white settlers and Native Americans was unavoidable. The United States was bent on dominating the land from coast to coast. They sought territory, new homelands, the wealth of mining minerals and to increase the power of the USA in world affairs. This could only be done by creating a nation that was considered to be a member of the world community.

Sadly all this came at the expense of the Native Americans. They were run off their ancestral lands by large numbers of Federal troops and an overwhelming surge of white settlers headed West.

The entire "New World" became the realm of the immigrants from Europe. And as it was in the North American continent, the South American continent would produce similar but not exact results.

Are wars are good way to end conflict between two countries?

Never good, but sometimes unavoidable - as when Britain had to react to Hitler's flouting of international treaties.


What event made the civil war become unavoidable?

Lincoln's election win in 1860 - it meant there would be no new slave states, so if the South did not secede, they would always be outvoted in Congress.


Why was Civil war inevitable?

The Civil War was seen as inevitable due to deep-rooted tensions between the North and South over issues such as slavery, states' rights, and economic differences. The expansion of slavery into new territories heightened conflicts, leading to events like the Missouri Compromise and the Dred Scott decision, which polarized the nation further. Additionally, the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, who opposed the expansion of slavery, prompted Southern states to secede, ultimately sparking the conflict. These factors created an environment where compromise became increasingly difficult, making war seem unavoidable.


Do you Think the us Could have avoided entering the war?

While some historians argue that diplomatic efforts could have potentially delayed or even prevented U.S. entry into World War II, the growing global tensions, particularly after events like the attack on Pearl Harbor, made involvement increasingly likely. Economic and military aid to allies through programs like Lend-Lease had already aligned the U.S. more closely with the Allies. Ultimately, the circumstances and pressures leading up to the war created a situation where intervention seemed unavoidable to protect national interests and global stability.
