Americanization of Native Americans
The Americanization of Native Americans was an assimilation effort by the United States to transform Native American culture to European-American culture between the years of 1790-1920.[1][2] George Washington and Henry Knox were first to propose, in an American context, the cultural transformation of Native Americans.[3] They formulated a policy to encourage the "civilizing" process.[2] With increased waves of Immigration from Europe, there was growing public support for education to encourage a standard set of cultural values and practices to be held in common by the majority of citizens. Education was viewed as the primary method in the acculturation process for minorities.
Americanization policies were based on the idea that when indigenous people learned United States (European-American) customs and values, they would be able to merge tribal traditions with European-American culture and peacefully join the majority society. After the end of the Indian Wars, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the government outlawed the practice of traditional religious ceremonies. It established boarding schools which children were required to attend. In these schools they were forced to speak English, study standard subjects, attend church, and leave tribal traditions behind.
The Dawes Act of 1887, which allotted tribal lands in severalty to individuals, was seen as a way to create individual homesteads for Native Americans. Land allotments were made in exchange for Native Americans' becoming US citizens and giving up some forms of tribal self-government and institutions. It resulted in the transfer of an estimated total of 93 million acres (6,100 km²) from Native American control. Most was sold to individuals. The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 was also part of Americanization policy.
Reservations. The reservations today are still federal property and Native Americans still live on them. The pipeline is going through a reservation named Rosebud and a treaty that was signed in 1886 has been broken by the Trump administration.

The first people were not nomadic. They came from West Europe. They were either criminals or pilgrims looking for religious freedom. They knew how to farm so they set up small farms and ports along the coast. For these reasons, they would have no reason to drift from home to home. Also I'm not sure if this is what your asking but the early Americans travelled great distances from many different countries. This meant that due to the few number of boats travelling to america, not enough resources were ported across to America meaning that it would have been hard to get very far. That is why small villages were set up near the coastline of america. If you mean the reasons for leaving there own countries and going to america you might want to have a look at this website
Reservations .
Yes, they did, but it wasn't because of the British losing the war, it was because of the Native Americans set on reservations.

An Indian reservation is land given to Native Americans from the government. Reservations are managed by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs. There are 310 reservations in the United States. Because they have limited laws, many Native Americans place casinos on their reservations to attract tourists and increase revenue.
