The Treaty of Fort Laramie, signed in 1851, aimed to establish peace between the U.S. government and various Native American tribes by delineating territorial boundaries and assuring protection for tribal lands. It sought to address conflicts arising from westward expansion and set terms for safe passage for settlers and traders through Native territories. In exchange, the tribes were promised annual payments and the recognition of their land rights. However, the treaty was often violated by the U.S. government, leading to further tensions and conflicts.
