The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there were no options provided, we can say the following.
The European colonists that tended to treat native Americans badly by burning and slashing large tracts of forests to create farms were the English colonists who settled the colony of Jamestown, Virginia.
When the first English colonists arrived in Jamestown, Virginia in 1607, they suffered due to the harsh weather conditions and the lack of food. Some of them survived with the help of Powhatan, the leader of the Confederation of Native American Indian tribes from the region.
However, as soon as the Native Indians realized that the English were there to stay and to exploit the raw materials to make a profit, conflicts started to the degree of violence and aggression. John Smith and his men started to take land and resources by force and burned Indian homes and lands.
