The Native American worldview was drastically different from the European American worldview when the two cultures first met. There was a broad diversity in worldviews among both Native Americans, who included people from the Arctic to Patagonia. Then we have the Europeans, who came from a plethora of different places and social classes. They viewed the world differently because they were from separate lands/areas. Differences in worldview had to do a lot with different conceptions of land ownership, which was major to both Europeans and Native Americans. Everyone came to America for more land and land ownership. Nobody wanted to share land because that’s not what they were used to. There used to claiming land as theirs and no one else’s.
