Imagine if Roman Legionnaires met their 15th century descendants Spanish Conquistadors armed with muskets and cannon. They would get smashed. Now think that Natives at the time of the first contact had less technology than the romans did. Of course they lost. But think how well they did and adapt. After a few years they learned firearms and many tribes like the Iroquois, Comanche, and Sioux defeated Euro-American armies in many battles. Not bad for a people that had only tech lower than romans only 150-200 years earlier. Another way to look at it is it took Europeans 200 years to conquer a continent that had low tech and was depopulated.

[@htoodoh5770]

@Vindexproeliator The Spanish had some native help.

[@gj1234567899999]

Vindexproeliator this isn’t true. Central Mexico was conquered quickly (with the help of thousands of Tlaxcallan allies to fight the Aztecs)but the Yucatán took 150 years to be pacified. Also the Comanches and the apaches kept the southwest from becoming very settled due to constant raiding. Basically in places you had an Indian kingdom with a strong central government, the Spanish conquered it easily once they defeated the king. However in decentralized areas with difficult terrain, the Spanish had a very hard time.

[@СергейВампир-л6в]

В 1948-1951 годах Израиль принял более 800-900 тыс. евреев-выходцев из арабо-исламских стран, многие из которых (особенно евреи - бывшие жители Ирака и стран Магриба) вынуждены были оставить свои страны, бросив имущество, перед лицом нарастающей в этих странах волны антисемитизма. Как заметила британский еврейский журналист и один из организаторов Ассоциации евреев-выходцев из стран Ближнего Востока и Северной Африки в Великобритании "Хариф", Лин Джулиус, сегодня в арабских странах проживают не более 4000 евреев. Это все, что осталось из многих сотен тысяч, которые в середине прошлого века еще проживали на территории современных арабских и иных мусульманских стран, где они оказались после падения Иудейского царства 2500 лет назад, то есть, примерно 1300 лет до прихода туда самих арабов. И еврейский исход с этих земель 40-е - 50-х гг. прошлого века, который стал крупнейшим потоком немусульман в регионе Ближнего Востока до массового изгнания иракских христиан во время "арабской весны", заметно превосходил число лиц, которые хоть как-то могли претендовать на статус мигрантов из бывшей британской Палестины. Таким образом, в известном смысле между Израилем и арабскими странами произошел своего рода "обмен населением", что было широко распространенным в первой половине ХХ века способом разрешения этнополитических и этно-религиозных противоречий. (Другие примеры такого же рода - обмен населением между Грецией и Турцией после Первой мировой войны, и Индией и Пакистаном в 40-50-е гг. ХХ века). Причем, в отличие от палестинских арабов в большинстве арабских стран, в Израиле евреям-выходцам из арабских стран было предоставлено полное гражданство - равно как и арабам, оказавшимся на его территории после окончании Войны за независимость (и уже на выборах в 1-ый Кнессет в 1949 г. участвовали арабские партии). Потому, хотя Израиль, как современное либеральное и цивилизованное государство, совместно со всеми арабскими странами готов взять на себя определенную гуманитарную роль в устройстве потомков "палестинских беженцев" там, где они проживают, или же в переселении их в те страны, которые пожелают их принять, с его точки зрения проблема беженцев закрыта. Заметим, однако, что в отличие от двух первых аргументов - что Израиль не является ответственным за проблему, которая возникла из-за агрессии арабов, стремившихся уничтожить еврейское государство, и не несет ответственности за то, что эта проблема законсервирована - этот третий аргумент долгие годы в Израиле звучал минорно. Важнее, было то, что на подобную схему были ни при каких условиях не согласны сами палестинские арабские лидеры, для которых принятие концепции "обмена населением" означает закрытие темы "палестинских беженцев", подрывающее ключевое звено "палестинской идентичности", а с ним их претензии на власть и ресурсы. С другой стороны, теоретически можно себе представить, что тема признания арабскими странами ответственности за исход евреев и присвоение их собственности, которая сильно усложняет их находящимся в капкане своей многолетней пропалестинской риторики лидерам задачу "продавить", на уровне местного общественного мнения, идею сближения с Израилем, парадоксально может стать и решением данной проблемы. Если дело будет представлено таким образом, что Израиль готов "поучаствовать в расходах", то есть, снять требование о передачи стоимости оставленного евреями имущества в обмен на экономическое устройство палестинских арабов и снятие "палестинской проблемы" с региональной и мировой повестки дня. Разумеется, здесь имеется и моральная проблема, причем уже на еврейском поле. Собственность огромной массы погибших в Катастрофе европейских евреев невозможно вернуть наследникам за неимением таковых, и эти финансовые или материальные ресурсы, в случае реституции передаются на нужды местных еврейских общин или Израиля, для распределения среди переживших Холокост и пострадавших от нацизма. В отличие от них, на конфискованную в арабо-мусульманских странах еврейскую собственность имеются или могут быть вполне конкретные претенденты - чьи права на нее могут быть документально намного более обоснованы, чем большинство аналогичных заявок арабов, на, якобы, принадлежавшие им дома в Хайфе или Цфате. Евреи арабских стран "не ждут компенсации за утерянное там имущество, но рассчитывают на извинения и признание вины за причиненные им страдания". А уже в рамках этих пониманий, Израиль и еврейский мир, судя по всему, сможет найти способ учесть и материальные претензии конкретных еврейских семей. Не исключено, что моральные и материальные права евреев арабских стран могут стать таким объединяющим еврейский мир фактором на нынешнем этапе..

@andrew T They're English at Jamestown. It was from the film The New World.

[@scootch4224]

@andrew T That's not very true. The Spaniards were armed with steel armor and had melee and firearms training. The natives just outnumbered them and the Spaniards were pretty chill with the natives for a while until Christopher Columbus was ordered by his king to expand land for resources and for more settlers to come in. If you put one native against on Spanish Conquistador, there's no doubt the Conquistador would be victorious. Then again, if the Spaniard has no rifle and only an arming sword or polearm, it might be a bit more difficult. Besides most tribes were completely unique to each other. You can't just compare the entirety of the Spaniards to the entirety of the Natives. That's ignorant and stupid.

[@mashek331]

@andrew T It was a pretty common theme among Western European armies at the time - the whole "shot and pike" formation wasn't unique to Spain. Rather they perfected it with the tercio.

[@scootch4224]

@andrew T I completely agree. When not comparing numbers, the Spaniard is superior in combat. What I also want to note about there colonization is there immense trading and how they exchanged their knowledge with different tribes that were more peaceful than others.

[@MajorCoolD]

Not only that, their Pike formation was more than attrocious... only 2 lines and thinly dispersed like that? Any determined attacker could have broken that... Anyone with a blade and a musket dispersed along the sides of the pike block (at least 3 ranks deep, preferably 5), anyone who had a musket but no proper sidearm/close combat weapon would have been better off on the ramparts on the fort, allowing them to shoot over the heads of their companions in the pikeblock. Of course ultimately it comes down to what numbers and people they had available, but all in all... not too suprising that this whole thing devolved into a wild skirmish of one on one fights. Then again, seeing how this is a Movie... I rarely have seen proper Formations being decently portrayed in movies.

This actually was a serious problem in early colonial America. A lot of regions were still densely wooded, and poorly mapped, giving Natives an intense home field advantage no matter the era. A harquebus often required an aiming fork to rest upon, since it was so heavy, meaning that the weapon required preparation before firing added upon the long reload time. Pikes and halberds would be far less useful out of formation, especially with the lower manpower available in an early colonial setting. Don't forget, these weren't professional soldiers most of the time, the professional mercenaries mostly stayed in Europe for the major conflicts, whereas these guys were mostly an inexperienced militia, dependent upon their commanders for leadership and discipline. Versus the natives, who usually preferred guerilla tactics, raids, shock tactics, and honorific dueling, all of which are highlights of tribal and endemic warfare, would mean that colonizers were only be in their element at a fort.

And history's first professional military. B. Dover Colonial soldiers, a lot of soldiers are sent out of Europe were not the best soldiers stood in Europe guarding their home countries. C. Warfare change so they did what they knew. What made Shield walls almost obsolete was the Knight & his 15 foot lance and the shock Warfare they practiced. The European Lancers of the Middle Ages were simply a very mobile & fast moving Macedonian Phalanx on horseback who charge almost needs knee in a mounted phalanx formation. Such Lancers didn't really exist anywhere else during the time & did not exist in ancient times either. Medieval Knights can blast through Infantry formations especially a shield wall. So that's why you see Warfare the way it is in the medieval times, and the Infantry had to adapt to that.

[@landsknecht8654]

And almost forgot: D. With plate armor and pike formations these can stop arrows. How can pikes stop arrows? Well by having pikes in different degrees/angels vertically acting as a "projectile shield" from above and a bit in front. Shooting arrows at a pike formation is like shooting at people in a wooded forest, probably not going to hit many of them and if you do hit some they have some steel armor. This is one of the reasons why bows and arrows were becoming less popular in the battlefields of Europe by the 1500s.

It impacted morale. The Indians' religion was dark and pessimistic, their gods distant and terrifying creatures to be placated, not really worshipped. Their stoic warrior ethic told them they were doomed before the fight began -- so you do your best, but the most you can really expect is an honorable death. The Spaniards, by contrast, felt an intimate connection with God, who was considered good; that He was fighting actively on their side, allowing them to win by His special favor, and that those that those Christians who fell would be the exception. Anyway, they'd end up in a better place -- rather a more encouraging picture of the afterlife than the Indians had.

@Afro Highborne I know you are black but gunpowder is not a gun btw and i dont think Chinese even create gunpowder and to think you have that for 1.000+ years and never think to make a wepon out of it is prety bad but then there are you that create notihng and have power just to destroy.No point in talking more since you will lie and care nothing about the truth.

Fighting a native would have been terrifying

In December of '66 you met me face to face. I decoyed your Captain Fetterman, and we never left a trace. Into our Sacred Homeland your blue coat soldiers came, and we just taught you a heap big lesson in the Battle of a 100 slain.

[@ejhickey]

Won the battle . Lost the war.

[@Disappearingboy1039]

Well…. Spaniards won in the end

Hey what's the name of that documentary at the end?

The initial settlements had a skewed ratio of persons. Many found labouring work beneath them,it's amazing Jamestown survived at all,other attempts did fail. Smith was a man with flaws but kept Jamestown going. I've just got two recently published military histories(I'm Scottish)the first is published by Helion and Co,by David Child's and called New world's ,old wars covering the campaigns from 1607-1678 and the other is Osprey books Campaign Series on Jamestown,studying the start of the colony from a purely military perspective. I've also got a great book by Pen and sword books on uniforms of the various colonies from around 1600-1700 which is handy for I've purchased a 28mms scale English army of the Jamestown early period for wargaming using pikemans lament rules by Osprey.

Not historical accurate at all

Do you have a time machine? Actually there?

[@Kilinho98]

@@henryguhoh1669 You know that something like history books and artifacts exists?

@Ginger Ginger It is not as that simple, lol 😂 Reports from events could be subjective in favor of victor, but still events are reported. As time flies historians tries to look at things unbiased. For example for centuries Roman emperor Nero was defamated by his political rivals or ensuing ceasars, but now we know why he was hated and what was true or not

[@Kilinho98]

@Ginger Ginger 😂😂😂 wow, how so? Tell me please some examples

[@Kilinho98]

@Ginger Ginger Lol, better would be to show me false unbiased history. Even wehrmacht soldiers got their respect
