Explanation:

As we know, when the Europeans invaded the American territory, there was already an established population, who were the real owners of that place, the Native Americans.

With the arrival of Europeans, Native Americans were exploited, abused, stolen and even killed. Currently, all of America has a small number of Native Americans, as most of them were killed during European expansion on the continent. The main factors that contributed to the decline of the native population were: disease (brought by Europeans and exposed to natives who did not have the organism adapted to them), forced assimilation (they were forced to learn European languages and cultures, as well as their customs and religious precepts in an extremely violent way), military technology and forced relocation (the natives were forced to abandon their territories and stay in places that did not provide the necessary for their survival).
