Which of these caused clashes between early european settlers and native americans?

Your answer would be "Europeans wanted the Native Americans to convert to European religions"

The thing that caused clashes between early European settlers and Native Americans was that Europeans wanted the Native Americans to convert to European religions.

Explanation:

The reason why "Europeans wanted the Native Americans to convert to European religions" would be the correct answer is because the Europeans wanted the Native Americans to follow their religion, and that would be Christianity. While the colonists welcomed the Natives when they went to their settlements, and trading with them, they would try to get a way to make the Natives Christians. Pretty much their goal was to teach the Native Americans about the bible. But, the Natives rejected and resisted every attempt they try to make. Since the native Americans were refusing, or resisting, the attempt by the colonist to turn them into Christians, there was a huge break out between the two groups. The native Americans and the settlers had a lot of violence between each other, which gave the settlers a negative attitude towards people. Because of this outbreak, settlers started to accept the failure to turn the Natives into Christians and started to believe that all races of color were bad. This is the reason why this answer choice would be correct.

Why the other choices are incorrect:

Answer choice "Native Americans believed the Europeans were angering their gods" is incorrect because:

The Native Americans didn't believe that the gods were becoming angry at them because the settlers were in their land. They probably would've thought that their gods would want them to get rid of the settlers. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.

Answer choice "Europeans wanted the Native Americans to share their food with them" is incorrect because:

This was something that did not cause a big clash between the Europeans (settlers), or Native Americans. The Europeans were pretty much all for themselves when it comes to getting food for the colony. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated

Answer choice "Native Americans believed the Europeans were hiding gold and silver from them." is incorrect because:

The Europeans (settlers) were pretty new to the land, which means that they didn't know much about it geography and what could potentially be on it. This is also something that did not cause a big clash between the Europeans and native Americans. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.

nothing certain is known about what happened, but it seems that the country declined gradually, perhaps due to bad government, or, more likely, due to a series of bad harvests, which resulted in widespread and recurrent famine.
