Humans versus Natives

This is a form of the traditional man-versus-man theme, but with a historical slant that resembles the historical conflict between the American government and the Native American Indians. The humans have lived on the planet they know as Alflolol for centuries without any major issues. They have colonized to the point that they feel a sense of ownership. When Argol and his family arrive, the humans learn that there is a problem. There are hundreds of families. All of the families will be expecting to pick up their lives where they left off thousands of years earlier. While the natives are peaceful and would not necessarily interfere with the humans' industries on purpose, the two groups clash with regard to focus. Each wants the same prime spots for their own. That sets the novel up for a classic clash of wills.
