French and Dutch colonization | Period 2: 1607-1754 | AP US History | Khan Academy

In the 1600s, French and Dutch settlers in North America took a very different approach to colonization than their English or Spanish counterparts. In this video, Kim Kutz Elliott examines the trading relationships that French and Dutch settlers established with Native Americans in North America and how colonial goals affected patterns of settlement.

My great grandfather 14 generations ago was Wolfert Guiretts Van Couwenhoven. He was one of these first Dutch settlers. I have papers and things he wrote in 1625.

The fabled Northwest Passage apparently does exist; it is through the Arctic Ocean, but it took many centuries to find it as it turns out.

At around 6:05, you circle an island, isn't that Long Island and not Manhattan ?

[awesomo]

My ancestors immigrated to North America as French colonists along the St Lawrence River! I also have a fair bit of British and Spanish ancestry along with Irish, Welsh and German! (and a bit of Northwest Russian/Finnish)

Just after 6:00, the presenter circles an island, calling it the island of Manhattan. That’s actually Long Island. Manhattan is the tiny island to the west of Long Island.

Thank you so much Khan Academy for acknowledging this part of history. There's a huge revisionist trend trying to depict every European colonizers as all the same, denying such crucial distinctions in relations with and treatment of First Nations, and i find that a terrible injustice for my people in Quebec, which ironically enough then often get depicted as even worst somehow.

Didn't the Vikings reach the America's before the Spanish?

I think the early allying of the French and Dutch with various Indigenous groups had more to do with proximity, than anything else. You traded with those who were near your trading posts.

The French may not have used force to convert Indigenous people to Christianity but their pursuit of 'winning souls for god' did include pitting tribes against each other and withholding food in times of need and famine.

Are there Any records of slavery during the early 1600 with the dutch settlers?

[chissstardestroyer]

The French as it turns out really kind of boxed in the British as the colonization progressed, including Louisiana and the area of the Louisiana Purchase, which reached the border of the Spanish holdings.

You say the Dutch chose to pay the natives to get the furs for them; what did the Dutch pay them with?
