There are at least 4,000 answers to this question and all of them would be correct. Native Americans for a general rule, shared a common form of government where the tribe was lead by Wise-Men, of course this changed if they were at war, and then you would have a War-Chief or Counsel. From there the question could be expanded to include another 4,000 answers, at 'gatherings' different leaders were chosen. I guess the best answer to this is: Leadership was Ad-Hoc based upon need, conditions, and persons to fill the position.

Why did the spanish destroy some American Indian villages and crops?

The Spanish destroyed some American Indian villages and crops as part of their colonization efforts in the Americas. This was often done to assert dominance and control over the indigenous populations, as well as to weaken their resistance to Spanish rule. Additionally, the destruction of villages and crops served to disrupt the social and economic structures of the indigenous communities, making them more reliant on the Spanish for resources and ultimately facilitating the process of colonization.

Why was the transcontinental railroad route across Indian territory initially ruled out?

The transcontinental railroad route across Indian territory was initially ruled out due to concerns about conflicts with Native American tribes, who were occupying and using the land. There were fears that construction would lead to violent confrontations and disrupt the existing treaties and relations with these tribes. Additionally, the challenging terrain and the need for extensive negotiations and protections for workers further complicated the potential for a route through Indian territory. Ultimately, the decision to bypass these areas was influenced by both political and practical considerations.
