A person’s feeling can be depicted by the way he or she draws their pictures. Superiority and inferiority can be shown by the way the artist makes a person or ship larger or smaller than another person or ship. This is shown in the Spanish picture where the French ships are on the coast of America. The French ships are small and the Native Americans appear to be larger. In another picture it shows a tribe of Native Americans gathered around each other in a village. The first picture shows the Spaniards belief that the French are inferior to the Native Americans and themselves. They depict this by drawing the Native Americans much larger than the French people and even their ships. The power of the Spaniards is proven when they combine forces with the Native Americans to annihilate the French in Florida.

The Europeans believed power was about conquering people. They conquered people in the name of God and Christianity. If they could not convert them they would destroy them. Their only knowledge was of God and what he wanted them to do.

The Native Americans believed power was in the tribe. The picture of the Native Americans showed how they all come together. They thought a close –knit society was the best way of life. They created villages where people lived close to each other. They had a number of different occupational groups in their society. The Native Americans knew how to use the land far better than the Europeans. The Native’s farmland was located around the village. That also showed the how tight their bonds were. Because they all worked together on the farm and all took home some of the profit.

On the other hand, the Europeans tended to keep a distance from each other. They had no sense of community. They did this because they wanted more land to farm. The more land they farmed the more money they could make. The Europeans had no real idea of who their neighbors were they lived in isolation. The main difference is the Europeans were all about themselves, where the Native Americans were all about teamwork.

I believe this is more about power than it is factual. I think if the Spaniards wanted to change history they could because they had the power. One nobody really knew what was going on in the New World so they could lie about it. The second thing is who can stop them. At that time Spain was a major world power, so they could do whatever they wanted
