"The Native American was still stuck in a stone age when the rest of the world was entering an industrial revolution, and they would still be hammering rocks into tools if it weren't for Europeans."
Native Americans were easily conquered and were screwed over very very badly.
but your statement still rings true.
When Europeans were building cities, writing literature, music, developing medicine, building ships, developing maps, advances in transportation, etc.......the native Americans were wandering around dragging their stuff behind them. They hadn't figured out how to build a structure that could protect them from winter, nor had they figured out the wheel.
The last time I was in a local museum of a specific tribe, there was a display showing the teepee, the rocks they used to grind corn, some buffalo hides, and a campfire.
no chair, though. I asked the person who was speaking on behalf of the display..."where are the chairs? Didn't want to avoid sitting on dirt?". Her response, "I guess not" LOL
