War-Torn Bethany Dillon

From Cortes's battles against Montezuma's Aztecs to Jackson's Trail of Tears in the mid 1800s, the discovery of the New World put Europeans and Native peoples in heated opposition of each other, and it wasn't long before the tide of civilization would rush across the untamed lands of the Americas killing thousands of first peoples in the rush for progress, plunder, slaves and riches. Having been invading indigenous civilizations much larger in population than Ivan the Great's Russia, Songhay in Sangel, Zimbabwe and the Ottoman Empire combined, the Europeans in numbers of just hundreds at a time brought down Native empires far bigger than any European state with the assistance of swords, armor, steel, horses, ships, guns, ammo, and a mode of warfare fully supported by the church and the holy crown. Genocide. Follow author Bethany Dillon through the pages of American history as she takes you on a journey to learn the truth about what actually took place in North America upon the arrival of Europeans.
