Like the population estimate of the Haudenoshonee citizen during its height in 1680s is 23,000 max and it controlled a quite large area, like easily bigger than France.
Like people bring up technological and military superiority of the Europeans and disease for the conquest and population replacement but few bring up the population density, maybe cuz its assumed that mentioning the disease death toll already covers that but its quite astonishing that the largest armies the colonies had to face didn't even number up to 5,000.
Like, let's compare this to Old world for a second. Caeser when in Gaul estimated 3 million people in Gaul(tho in a rhetorical phrase) and fought armies easily over that 23,000 population, with those dynamics one could argue that Rome could easily conquer half of North America during the colonial Era.
So I wonder, what if the Anglo colonists met armies of like 100,000 max Ameridians or 20-30,000 on a normal battle?.
