He is Pocahontas and John Smith's arch-nemesis. He is very loosely based on the historical figure John Ratcliffe, though he really takes on the qualities of many of history's ambitious and morally dubious pioneers as well as the usual traits of a Disney villain (such as a love of power, arrogance, and a flair for the dramatic). Governor John Ratcliffe is the main antagonist of Disney's 33rd full-length animated feature film Pocahontas (which is based on the life and legend of the Native American woman of the same name), and its 1998 direct-to-video sequel Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World. ~ Governor John Ratcliffe declaring that anyone who doesn't kill an Indian upon sight shall be hanged.
This is MY land! I make the laws here! And I say anyone who so much as looks at an Indian without killing him on sight will be tried for treason.
