Tippecanoe
Governor William Henry Harrison of the Indiana Territory
General William Henry Harrison defeated Tecumseh during the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811. This battle was part of a larger conflict involving Native American resistance against American expansion. Tecumseh, a prominent Shawnee leader, sought to unite various tribes to resist encroachment on their lands, but Harrison's forces ultimately emerged victorious. This defeat weakened Tecumseh's coalition and contributed to the War of 1812.

Tecumseh
Chief Tecumseh was a member of the Shawnee Indian tribe.
No, Tecumseh did not believe he should be obedient to William Henry Harrison. Tecumseh was a Shawnee leader who advocated for Native American resistance against American expansion into their lands. He sought to unite various tribes to oppose U.S. encroachment and viewed Harrison, as the governor of the Indiana Territory, as a significant threat to Native sovereignty. Therefore, Tecumseh's stance was one of defiance rather than obedience.
In negotiating the Treaty of Fort Wayne in 1809, William Henry Harrison angered Shawnee chief Tecumseh by acquiring land from several Native American tribes without the consent of all the tribes involved, particularly the Shawnee. Tecumseh viewed this as a blatant disregard for Native sovereignty and rights, as it undermined the unity of Native nations against encroaching American settlers. This act contributed to rising tensions between the United States and Native American tribes, ultimately leading to further conflict.
