The European believe that A. INDIVIDUALS CAN OWN LAND AND USE IT AS THEY WISH.

Whereas, Native American believe that God owns the land and people, as a whole, share in the use of it.

Before the Europeans landed in the United States, Native Americans have already settled there and have established harmony among other group or tribes with regards to the land.

The land is vast and is filled with food for everyone, be those food in the form of vegetation and animals. Native Americans only take what they need so that others can also satisfy their basic needs. When Europeans arrived, they wanted to own parcel of land and don't want to share the harvest produced in the land they claimed as their own.
