The correct answer is: The Wampanoag needed protection from the Narragansett.
They formed an alliance (notably Massasoit’s treaty with the Pilgrims) for mutual benefit — military protection against rival tribes like the Narragansett, plus trade goods and diplomatic ties that helped the Wampanoag after severe population losses from disease.
