Where did the broken Indian treaties come from?

Native Americans did not know of a 'treaty' and had never heard of it before Europeans showed up and wanted their lands. By international law the only way to take the lands were through treaty, so they began signing them with the Native Americans. They then quickly broke them.As an example:The first act of the newly formed United States Government was to sign a treaty with Native American's, accepting the terms and conditions of all previous treaties signed with the original European governments (a blanket treaty that gave the USA legal rights to the lands): Treaty of Fort Pitt (September 17th 1778). The United States then broke that treaty within 2 weeks by disallowing the promised representative from taking a hand in government (as promised) then shooting them: Within one year of the treaty the United States had killed the two treaty signers, who were also complaining that the United States had violated their written word.To compound this, the United States passed a law "The Indian Reorganization and Recognition act" (1934) that intentionally broke (violated) every treaty signed with Native Americans and prevented any othersSo, I guess you can say that Broken Treaties come from a knowingly, intentional disregard for the consequences of action by the United States.
