 * What is your //general// belief about who or what is most responsible for causing the conflict?**

The measels outbreak was one reason the outbreak happened.The indians didnt have the immune system to protect themselves from the virus. I also think that the indians were jealous about Whitman. So I think Whitman is responsible for the horrible massacre.

**What is the relevant background information (i.e. who, what, when, where)?**

This happened in November 29,1828 near the Walla Walla river. The Tilaukait and Tomahas are the indians attacking people.

**What were 3 factors that helped cause the conflict (politics, economics, geography, history)?**

There was the measel outbreak. The indians were also proboly very jealous. And the final reason might be because the indians didnt like other countrys coming to Walla Walla

**Explain why one factor is more important than the others.**

The measle outbreak was proboly the most important reason why the indians went beserk.

**How could the conflict have been avoided?**

It couldnt of happened if the settlers tried to help cure the indians. The indians might have been gratefull and not have attacked.
