Best Answer

One war that actually took place in Wyoming was the Johnson County War of 1892 (aka the War on the Powder River or the Wyoming Range War), basically an invasion funded by the powerful cattlemen due to conflicts with small ranchers over the land used for grazing cattle.

Many battles of the Indian War also took place in Wyoming. The Indian War was the Native American's attempt to prevent settlers from intruding on Indian lands along with a response to violations of the treaties between the Native American tribes and the US Government.

Residents of Wyoming and the territories which eventually formed the state of Wyoming have participated in wars since the Mexican War in 1846.
