The Native Americans wanted to trade and help the Early Settlers out, but the Early Settlers refused any help and refused to trade. “Communication and Trust are two main ingredients for a successful RELATIONSHIP.” (Unknown). The Early Settlers did not trust the Native Americans, they thought differently and lived a different lifestyle . The Early Settlers also did not want any Communication at all with the Native Americans. The Native Americans wanted to trade and wanted to communicate with the Early Settlers but they wouldn’t. The Native Americans also wanted to trust the Early Settlers but it is hard to trust someone who doesn’t trust you. Therefore, they couldn’t have a relationship. “The House stood upon the edge of a Hill; some of the Indians got behind the Hill, others into the Barn, and others behind anything that would shelter them” (Rowlandson, J.). The Native Americans wanted to go there and offer a trade and wanted to form a relationship but was shut down so they tried to force one, they think that if they kidnap people, the Early Settlers will want to agree to get their people back. It did not work that way so they had a battle. When they went into battle it was led to believe that it was the start of their war. The Native Americans really tried to form a relationship but could not due to the Early Settlers not wanting to do such a

The Treaty of 1868 was between the Navajo and United Stated that was signed in to law in the late 19th century. Navajo leaders made an agreement for peace and friendship, reservation boundaries, education, land development and ownership. It allowed the

The origin of the problem was an agreement, the Fort Wayne Treaty, signed in the fall of 1809 between the United States and representatives. In return for an outright bribe of $5,200 and individual annuities ranging from $250 to $500 for land already occupied by many other Indian groups. In August 1810, Tecumseh met with Governor Harrison to denounce the Fort Wayne Treaty. Harrison insisted that the agreement was legitimate. Tecumseh

The French and Indian war had a large impact on relations between Indians and European settlers throughout North America; this war shook the foundation of all the empires. The cause of the war was due to both the French and English wanting to expand their territories. The French had built a system of forts that the English settlers wanted to expand to, mainly Fort Duquesne which was a very important plot of land at the forks of the Ohio River. This plot of land was crucial to obtain because of its access to all of the Ohio country, gaining control of three rivers: the Ohio, Allegheny, and Monongahela, which were very important for trade. When war broke out, both the French and English had Indian alliances and enemies, which had an immense impact on the victory and defeat of the two sides, ultimately affecting the relationship between the Indians and the English.

The Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868 was to bring peace between the whites and the Sioux who agreed to settle within the Black Hills reservation in the Dakota Territory.

The Treaty between the United States of America and the Navajo Tribe of Indians was signed in New Mexico in May of 1868. The Treaty is also known as The Treaty of Bosque Redondo and was set forth to help create peace between the settlers and the native people.

Later on “there was intense pressure to acquire Indian land, by debt-ridden states and a federal government anxious to use public land to pay off war debts, and from speculators who saw fortunes to be made from the sale of thousands of square miles of virgin timber and agricultural acreage, of waterways, mill sites, harbors, and so forth” (Wallace 30). Profits and paying off others were more important than the Indians and their rights. Due to these pressures and greed, “the U.S. commissioners at the Treaties of Fort Stanwix, Fort McIntosh, and Fort Finney in 1784, 1785, and 1786 “gave” peace to the Iroquois and the Indians of Ohio. In return, the Indians present at these meetings promised that their tribes would vacate much of their land north

When they found gold it was just a matter of time before things on the Sioux land would become heated. Miners made their way to the Black Hills, moving further and further into the Sioux’s hunting grounds. Ulysses S. Grant who was president during this time tried to honor the Treaty of Fort Laramie (PBS n.d.) but the miners demanded government protection from the Native Americans (Clark n.d.). When Grant gave into the pressure the federal government issued an order requiring all Indians to move onto reservations by January 31, 1876, otherwise they would be considered hostile (PBS n.d.).

Signed in 1790, the Muscogee Treaty was the first formal agreement between the early U.S. government and Native American nations. It established guidelines for interaction between the United States and the Creek and Seminole Nations living in the Southeast.

From 1778 the Unites States government attempted to resolve an already tense relationship with numerous native tribes. These treaties were between two sovereign nations and negotiated as such since almost no Indian nations held anything resembling a dictatorships, the United States took it upon themselves to appoint the chiefs with whom they deemed worthy of negotiating. The appointed leaders tended to be more agreeable to American interests rather than their specific tribe as the now found themselves on the U.S payroll. These treaties would then divide their lands and limit their necessarily resources in exchange for trade good and forgotten promises of annual payments and no further demands or regulations would be placed upon them. These formal

In 1851 another Treaty was created to define territory to each tribe. This in order to end intertribal rivalry and it permitted travelers and railroad workers on the Platte River Road. Unfortunately, many Tribes never knew about the existence of the 1851 Treaty and therefore, continued their intertribal fights. The US government regarded this as an infringement of the treaty, however, and government could not compel its own countrymen to respect the treaty either. Travelers continuously passed through defined Indian territories and ignored the Treaty (North Dakota Studies, 2017). In 1868 the Fort Laramie Treaty was signed, in order to define the relationship that existed between the US government and the tribe, but by the time, the US government used treaties as a way to extinguish indigenous rights to ancestral homelands. And so when Sioux Treaty lands were overrun with gold seekers, the US simply sought to modify rather than honor the existing treaty (North Dakota Studies,

Four months after surrendering, Crazy Horse was arrested and bayoneted in the back. He died on September 5, 1877. The newspapers reported that Crazy Horse was killed while attempting to escape. The army claimed they were arresting him because of reports that he was planning on escaping the reservation. Many Natives and supporters believed that the reason for killing Crazy Horse was to take the will away from the Sioux or in other words break them.

He learned that people knew no more than he did and that he was able to perk people’s curiosity

Over time, Bagheera and Baloo taught him everything he needed to know about survival as being known as just another wolf of his pack and above all they also took great care of him.
