Question:
A powerful chief that lead over thirty tribal chiefdoms between the James and Potomac rivers. He was willing to ally with the English traders who could produce valuable goods; however, he expected tribute from these traders. In exchange for food, he wanted hatchets, bells, beads, and copper as well as guns. He also wanted Jamestown to become a community under his chiefdom, for which he married his daughter, Pocahontas, to an English colonist, John Rolfe. Over the years, this tactic failed and war would strike between the two sides for a plethora of reasons.
