Why didn't the early reservation system work out very well?

The early reservation system did not work because it displaced the Native Americans far from their homes. Many were killed or died unnecessarily in the process.


Why did the US develop the reservation systems for the native Americans?

As the US amped up its westward movement after the US Civil War, Native Tribe treaties with the US were ignored by White settlers. In turn, Native Americans used armed conflict to retain the rights they had been promised. White settlers and the Tribes engaged unacceptable levels of violence and "removing Natives" from the prime areas that the Whites wanted required an expansion of the "Indian Reservation System". For the most part this goal of Washington DC was accomplished by the end of US President Grant's last term of office in 1876.

What caused the breakdown of the reservation system?

The breakdown of the reservation system in the United States was primarily caused by a combination of economic pressures, social changes, and legal challenges. Economic factors included the depletion of natural resources and the desire for land expansion, leading to increased encroachment on Native American territories. Additionally, legal decisions, such as the Dawes Act of 1887, aimed to assimilate Native Americans into mainstream society by allotting individual plots of land, undermining communal landholding practices. These elements collectively contributed to the erosion of the reservation system and the marginalization of Native American communities.

Were Native Americans colonized or did they immigrate to the US?

If I have to choose one of those options, I would choose that the Native Americans were colonized by the United States. However, I would argue that while the US illegally confiscated the territory that Native Americans occupied, the Native Americans were rarely, if ever, colonized. The US did not want them as citizens and actively fought several wars and committed atrocities to force them off of land that the US government decided would be in its interest to control directly. Native Americans only became "integrated" into the US via the Reservation System, whereby Native Americans received US citizenship and lived on Reservations, but this is fundamentally different than colonization in Latin America, Africa, or Asia where the native populations were actively involved in the European-dominated society.

Should Native Americans be given greater credit for helping develop the theory behind the American system of government?

Almost all of the theory behind the American system of government was developed long before George Washington discussed it with Native Americans. The main Native American contribution was to show that such a government actually worked in practice for a secular government and not just for a religious one.
