“Arrivals…There Goes The Neighborhood”

"There Goes The Neighborhood". This one quote can tell many things. One for sure is the coming of Christopher Columbus to the Americas and meeting the Native Americans. Between the explorers and Indians, they were both different groups with different languages, values, crops, and life style. Of course when they 1st encountered each other, both had different views of one another. This starts to change when 2 different groups or more start to share the same land. This happens because one side is used to their way of living and the other is used to theirs. Of course this causes some conflict since they wont be able to agree on the cultures of one another. The bad things that this can cause are problems for  both groups, unstable relationships, killing can happen, etc. If both sides were to agree with one another then they would all live by the same rules, and life style. For example, Christopher Columbus made some Indians convert to Christianity in order to spread it. He also took advantage of the Indians by ripping them off with cheaper valued items and the search for gold. 2 groups or more living in the same space can alter how the community will also function, for example theocracy, or autocracy. Overall, have 2 groups or more share a space to live on, can cause certain problems that may lead to a bigger outbreak or both sides can agree to the way of the rules and live a new type of community.
