Discrepant Event
Indians staged uprisings against the English at Jamestown,
Virginia, between 1622 and 1644.
Over 400 English settlers died
during those clashes. The attacks by the Indians almost wiped out the
people of Jamestown.
In New England, the Plymouth Colony people and the New England
(English) people stayed friendly with the local Native between 1622
and 1644.
During this period, only minor clashes befell the Plymouth
Colony. A treaty with the Pilgrims lasted until the late 1600s.

White returned to England seeking aid

English ships were smaller than Spanish
