    A few years ago I decided to leave the world of television and spend my entertainment dollars on only a RUclips Premium account.
    This is precisely the content that drove my decision.
    Incredible!

    I recently went down the Aztec empire rabbit hole and Aztecs did not have the logistics to hold territory for the same reasons eastern US Indian tribes had.
    Instead, i theorize they leaned into terror tactics, intimidation, lightning raids for their, eventual, industrial scale levels of human sacrifice in lier of an occupational army. Using brutality as a force mutipler which eventually backfired on them in the most epic way.

      Dude, as an Israelite and an historian who has had the privilege to study history from primary sources available to serious academics I can assure you that the descendants of invaders have no right to tell our story. These people are demonic savage antiBlack racists who do everything to hide the fact that a particular group of Black people called Israelites ie Shemites are responsible for everything associated with civilization and culture throughout history wherever we find modernity. I'm short, the civilizations found throughout the Americas are theirs and they know that this is the true old world. Everything associated with civilization and culture is far older here than anywhere else on the planet. Lastly, logic says that it would have been impossible for socalled nonblack people to have appeared anywhere on the planet before Black people. When racism is not a part of your thought process you inevitably come to the conclusion that these particular Black people ruled the world up until around 1750. Primary sources reveal what famous people LOOKED like and this we avoid the whitewash of the most civilzed and cultured people on the planet. See Anacalypsis by G Higgins and Black Sambo documentary on RUclips John Ogilvy and John Mackey from primary sources and diaries of the early colonial invaders from primary sources.

    I'm actually learning new interesting things from this thumbs up. Funny the germanic tribes required buffer zones between them in a similar way.

    I can’t say how many times I have heard of European captives describing being forced to flee days without food until a cash of supplies suddenly materializes. This was the first time I’ve ever heard the Native American side of things.

    Recommend "Primitive War" Its Practice and Concepts by Turney-High. At least the taboo factor is mentioned and the topic is most comprehensively addressed in my opinion. .

    What about the Beaver Wars? It seems like the Iroquois were emptying out Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan of rival tribes. They were certainly adopting people to keep their numbers up. The empty area was then open as hunting grounds. Did the author look at this war much? Tribes like the Shawnee and Miami were subdued by the Iroquois. But they never had numbers to occupy lands.

    Lehighton Students Investigate: Gnaden Huetten Moravian Massacre & Ben Franklin's Fort Allen. Lehighton's Gnaden Huetten Massacre (November 24th, 1755) occurred after the start of the French and Indian War with Gen. Braddock's Defeat (also known as The Battle of the Wilderness) in July 1755. (The Gnaden Huetten Massacre along the Mahoning Creek Valley of Pennsylvania should not be confused with the massacre of the same name in the same named valley of Ohio in 1782. In the Lehighton massacre, Shamokin Native Americans killed peaceful Moravians while the massacre in Ohio was retaliation by wilderness forces committed against the native people of that valley.

    This lecture is a necessary antidote to the utter claptrap published by John Grenier on the topic.

    Can't say any of these ideas are too surprising or groundbreaking, it mirrors similar societies across eurasia and africa, and I'd bet australia.
    That said it's well reasoned and was interesting with the graphs and such

    Power is someone who willing does their tax because they are happy to give it... force is when someone does their tax because they are more worried about the punishment if they dont. Force is generally there... and one can argue that social pressures and mores are both power and force. Power is given force takes.

    Eastern warfare is not suited to Indian horse fighting because of the lack of the vast grasslands save Kentucky and the requirements for fodder to sustain horses. Even in the West read of how difficult it was to sustain calvary in the field without fodder resupply. Landscape in the East was human foot trails not the open spaces in the West The horses in the East were primarily captured from settlers or other tribes while the Western horses were more adapted to grass feeds. . 57:25 59:23 1:00:19

    The Colonials way of war was to move settlers out into "empty" land. We had the numbers to occupy territory and hold it. My family did this to the Shawnee from the 1730's in the Shenandoah Valley up to the War of 1812 here in Indiana. We were bad neighbors but we had the numbers and the will.

    Native Americans were conscious of their own logistical needs and how they relied on cached supplies in order to move light...
    Horses need to graze in open meadows otherwise they require substantial amounts of feed. Transporting or caching feed for horses would amount to more logistical headaches for the warriors.
    Also, unless a road or trail isn't already trampled down by heavy use, deep snow could impede travel with horses.
    Killing the settlers'/army's horses not only was a way to cripple the enemy logistically, the dead horses could also be eaten.
    What I'm suggesting is just speculation and needs to be proven by documentation, but it does make sense...

      The Mongols under Ghengis Khan used horses as both transport and food. I think the crucial thing was their ability to bleed the horses for food without killing them on long campaigns. As well as the ability to shoot arrows from on horseback.
