I've been trying to Grok the Indian Wars and explain them to people who only get the movie version of history.
And it hit me.
Western Civ did not have total war and the American Indian never didn't have it.
That meant the Indian way of conducting war broke a lot of the rules that the West thought were inherent to having a war.
Unfortunately for the Indians, they learned something on page 2 of the Book of War:
Never teach Western Civ a new way of fighting.
Cowabunga it was.
