How might american indians have successfully resisted initial white settlements? What factors impeded successful indian resistance?

Answers

One way in which the Native Americans might have successfully resisted initial white settlements is by not sharing with the white settlers their secrets for growing food (which they did). The primary factor that impeded successful indian resistance was that they waited to long to resist--meaning that the settlers had already become powerful.

Answer:

The Byzantine emperor asked the pope for help in repelling Muslim invaders. - statement accurately describes an event or belief that led to the First Crusade

Explanation:

Pope Urban II gives the most famous speech of the "Middle Ages" on 27th November 1095, eventually leading to the Crusades by calling every Christian of Europe to fight Muslims to reassert the Holy Land by saying “God wills it!” or “Deus vult!”

By the conclusion of the eleventh century, the Holy Land – today generally known as the Near East – was a source of contention for European Christians. Christians have also considered it their place of pilgrimage and to the home of their faith since the 6th century, but Christians have been denied the holy city since the Seljuke Turks took possession of Jerusalem. When then the Turks threatened to conquer the Byzantine Empire and take Constantinople, byzantine Emperor Alexius I appealed to Urban for special assistance.

The war cry of Urban has taken fire and mobilized clerics to back the Muslim Jihad in Europe. All told, 60000 to 100000 people replied to Urban 's call for march in Jerusalem. The promise of increasing land holdings & wealth through conquest was the lure of "European nobles" . Those nobles were accountable for the death on their way to and in the Holy Land of a great many innocents, which drained the wealth and resources of those they considered adversaries of its cause. The ineptitude & lack of discipline of Christian farmers against the Muslims' qualified skilled armies was like adding to the death  toll.

As a consequence, the Christians had been driven back originally, and only by pure numbers could they win. 2 weeks after the "fall of Jerusalem", Urban passed out in 1099, however he returned to Europe well before reports of a Christian victory. It was the first of 7 big military campaigns that took place over the next 200 years, the Crusades that still have the gruesome consequences. The Roman Catholic Church in the year 1881 canonized Urban.
