The Northwest Territory was to be given away by British forces under the treaty of Pairs in 1783. However, the American Indian tribes in Northwest Territories put up a strong resistance and refused to be ruled over by American forces while the British helped them. In first attempt the American forces had to bear large number of casualties during war, however a later attempt to gain control proved to be successful.
