In the early days of European colonisation, a native American was asked what he called America before the white man arrived. He replied 'Ours', which, I think, answers the question.

Why was the Indian reservation policy a failure?
The reservation system was set up to cage the Indians until they all died out. They were set up to fail by being sent to reservations in areas where the lands and climates were so foreign to the tribes that they perished by the thousands. Some reservations were put side by side with reservations of ages old enemies. The reservations were lands that the white man didn't want and were largely inhospitable. Combine that with corrupt Indian Agents who took the best of the government goods and gave the Indians meat that had turned bad. Bug laden flour and holey blankets were also passed around. The reservations might have been overcrowded. Also important was that they could not practice their own spirituality and in that alone, they were set up to perish.

Pros and cons of Native Americans going to reservations during the 19th century?
The pros would have only been for the Americans. Reservations were generally and purposely established in areas largely uninhabitable - lands the Americans did not want. The reservations were far away from lands the tribes grew up in, so they had no way to adapt to the land or its climate. Also they were often placed side by side with ages old enemies. The plus for the Americans was that it was a perfectly legal way to continue its planned genocide. The cons of the reservations were numerous. Aside from what was mentioned above, the reservations created an atmosphere of dependency upon the government. This again was to destroy the spirit of the American Indian.

Why did the native Americans resist moving to reservations?
The Indians disliked living on government reservations because it was not their way of living, There was a lot of hostilities during the late 1800's between the Indians and the US government, The US government wanted to keep track of the Indians and their movement, so most of the plains Indians were forced into living on Government owned land (The Reservations) One of the main reasons for the US governments suspicion against the Indians was the Ghost Dance created by the Sioux Indian Wovoka. Ghost Dances were carried out at the government reservations, and the Indians believed that the sacred Ghost Dance would bring their ancestors back to life and the plains back to how it used to be. Another reason for the Plains Indians not liking the Reservations is the fact that the Indians could not run their lives on how they wanted it to be, the Indians didn't have their traditional lifestyle, and were often forced to act more like one of the white men and some were even educated in the white man's way of life. The Indians were basically being told how to live their life's and did not have the freedom they were used to on the Plains. The Indians Nomadic way of life was also connected to their beliefs about land, they believed land was provided by the Great spirit for all living creatures to share. Therefore they believed no one should ever live permanently on one piece of land because they would be claiming it for themselves.
