The relationship of the Jamestown settles and the Powhatan tribes were known to be the strangest relationship of all time. Powhatan treated the early settler with much care. When everything happened smoothly the Indian tribes started exchanging food for the metal goods which later resulted in a crackdown in their relationship.

Sometime colony settlers' negotiation for food failed to make a lead with the Indian tribes. So the head of the colony settlers, John Smith decided to take what they needed from the tribes, by force.

The Indian tribes realized that the English colonist decision of staying there forever. So they started attacking the settlement and burning the few crops they have planted. Soon these acts resulted in the creation of more atrocities on each other.  This is how the Powhatan and Jamestown settlers broken away from their relationship.
