What were the goals of treaties with American Indians?
Representatives of the federal government of the United States had many different goals in mind when they negotiated treaties with the American Indians. The goals were largely dependent on the period of time when the treaty was signed. Early treaties (prior to 1830) focused largely on nonaggression towards the United States. A fairly common term of early treaties with the Native Americans was that the tribe could not seek nor make an alliance with any foreign nation. This was done to prevent the tribe from aiding any foreign aggressor in their attempt to engage the United States in a war (as they had during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812). Treaties after the Indian Removal Act of 1830 were largely aimed at relocating Indian populations west of the Mississippi River. Furthermore, the treaties contained language that would be used to contain the tribes to a defined piece of land. Some scholars suggest that the federal government wished to make every Native American a subsistence farmer. Legislation such as the Dawes Act of 1887 suggest this is probably true.
