Native Americans
By: Kristie Regal
What Happened To The Native Americans During The Westward Expansion?
The Native Americans were forced to move out of their home on onto Indian Reservations. The land was not the best land, but the government promised that they would pay the Indians. Although the government wasn't always on time. This happened between 1820-1860. It took place mainly North of Nebraska and South of Kansas.
The Indians were FURIOUS!!!
UPSET!!!
The Native Americans were very mad about the Indian Reservations. The Government didn't always follow through, and it was horrible. They were very upset.
NO MORE BUFFALO!!!
Since the Native Americans had to move to the Indian Reservations, they didn't have much freedom to hunt. There would none, if any buffalo in the plantations.
NO WHERE TO PLANT!!!
The land was not good planting ground in the Indian Reservation grounds.
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN???
What Was The Conflict?
The Native Americans: wanted land for hunting and gathering in order to get food, they were Non-Christians, and they were not white.
The Europeans: wanted land for ranching, forming and mining, they patronize Non-Christians and Non-White, and land with no permanent homes were worthless.
