Who were the people that Europeans formed strong economic, religious and military bonds with in the first 200 years of coexistence?

  1. The Vikings.

  2. The British colonists.

  3. The Aboriginal people.

  4. The French explorers.

The correct answer is: The Aboriginal people.

During the first 200 years of European colonization in what is now known as North America, the Europeans formed strong economic, religious, and military ties with the Native American groups, also known as the Aboriginal people. This was due to the fact that the Aboriginal people had a wealth of knowledge about the land and its resources, and also had established political and economic systems. The other options, including the Vikings, British colonists, and French explorers, did not have as long of a presence in North America and therefore did not form the same level of bonds with the Native American groups. Additionally, the British colonists and French explorers often had conflicting agendas and often did not establish strong relationships with the Native American groups.
