Why did the the Five Civilized Tribes side with the Union during the Civil War?

Several of the Native Americans were slave owners themselves. However, most of the Confederate Support stemmed from the fact that the Native American Tribes deeply mistrusted the Federal government. The Federal government had given the tribes no reason to support them, as they had been almost completely disenfranchised at the government's hands. The Union also did nothing to regain Native American support when the war began.

The Five Tribes were divided in the civil war, with the Creek and Seminole supporting the Union, and the Choctaw and Chickasaw fighting on the Confederate side, and the Cherokee fighting a civil war within their own nation.
