British settlers and their descendants kill millions of native Americans - Not to worry, it's the natural order of things.
British government places a tax on tea - COLONIAL ASSPLODE!

I don’t think it was so much the settlers as it was infectious disease and cheap whisky and rum.
In any case though I think the Natives tended to fair somewhat better under the French as overlords than any of the other European powers.

Except for Leif Erikson. Instead of the Native American brinksmanship and in-fighting or the European slave trade, all he wanted to do in North America was get wasted.
And still he gets left out. Our values suck.

Whenever I hear the name I always think people are talking about a Scandinavian heavy metal guitarist.
