Those 38 surviving settlers really reduced the resources available for the native tribes (about 1 per square mile population density, I think).

I think the descendants of the Powhatan Indians might want to express regrets over the massacre of 1622.

Virginia, by the way, had the beginnings of representative government in 1619--the year before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock.
