World View of Native People

   When the French saw the people for the first time, they thought of them as savages and wild beasts. At that time, the Native Americans and Aboriginals were viewed as just disgusting creatures. They were viewed as people with no ethics and culture. Some have even called them demons of the land. The world of those people were very harsh, but it wasn't all true. They were really civilized and peaceful people. They consider life and everything in it precious. They don't take war as a habit but as a last resort. The stereotypes in those times were very harsh because of what they saw.
