What was the result of both Peqout war and king war?

The Pequot War of 1637 resulted in the near-annihilation of the Pequot tribe, with many of its members killed or captured and enslaved by English colonists and their Native American allies. The war further escalated tensions between the English and other Native American tribes in the region.

King Philip's War, also known as the Metacom's War, took place from 1675 to 1678 and was fought between English colonists and a coalition of Native American tribes led by Metacomet, sachem of the Wampanoag tribe. The war resulted in significant casualties on both sides and extensive destruction of Native American villages and English settlements. The war ended with the defeat of the Native American coalition, leading to further loss of Native American land and autonomy in the region.

Both wars had a profound impact on the relationship between English colonists and Native Americans in New England, leading to increased distrust, conflict, and displacement of Native American tribes.
