Answer:

B. a British settler.

Explanation:

When the British first settled in North America, they did so in the territory of the Powhatan people. When this happened, conflict started almost immediately. However, the two groups eventually started cooperating and trading. The Powhatan taught the English how to grow tobacco, which became an extremely popular crop. However, after this success, tensions rose again, as the English tried to push the Powhatan off their lands.
