Any topic that concerns the Amerian Indian Wars (1622-1890) will almost always concern territorial disputes. The whole purpose (the whole reason) behind the Indian Wars (Native American Wars) was the White man (White People) moving onto the Red Man's land (Red People's land). As the Whites moved west, they ended up in conflict with the Red people's territory. The Nez Perce war was no different; same story different tribe: The settlers (Whites) wanted the Red man's land for GRAZING their cattle and of course GOLD was discovered (or at the least the rumor of GOLD was sent out). Same as with the Black Hills in the Dakotas (Gold) brought in the Whites which conflicted with the Red people...culminating into the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876 between the Sioux/Cheyenne Nations and the US Army.
Same old story, different time and tribe.
