The North American Native tribes had been treated badly by the US government. Some thought that forming some type of alliance with the Confederacy would be a better deal then being loyal at all to Washington DC. Both the Confederacy and the Native tribes had a common enemy, the USA. Thus the Creek, Choctaw, and Chickasaw Tribes signed treaties with the Confederacy.

Does the US government have any treaties with the Native American now?

No; beginning in 1870 through 1935 the US Government abrogated (violated) all treaties ever signed with Native American's by acts of the legislature. This abrogation returned all land ownership to Native American tribes although the US Government refuses to vacate the lands taken under those treaties.

What treaty forced the native Americans to sell their lands?

The Treaty of Fort Laramie, signed in 1851, is one significant treaty that compelled Native Americans to cede their lands. It established boundaries for various tribes but also allowed for the U.S. government to negotiate further land cessions. Over time, numerous treaties, often signed under duress or through coercion, led to significant loss of Native American territories. These treaties were frequently violated by the U.S. government, further undermining the sovereignty of Native tribes.


Did the government keep or break most of the treaties that it made with the native Americans?

The government historically broke many treaties made with Native Americans, often prioritizing expansion and resource acquisition over honoring agreements. Numerous treaties were signed under duress or false pretenses, and subsequent policies frequently disregarded their terms. This pattern of treaty violation contributed to significant loss of land, culture, and autonomy for Native American tribes. While some treaties were upheld, the overall trend has been one of broken promises and unfulfilled commitments.


How Native Americans were affected by the treaties they signed with the US during the late 18th century and 19th century?

What was the peace treaty established by a Native American tribe?

There were numerous treaties signed by numerous Native American tribes that guaranteed peace from both sides if the Native Americans would limit their movements and living to a particular area of their traditional lands. Unfortunately, many of the treaties went unratified by the American government. The Natives would often think that they were guaranteed their lands by a treaty with the government only to later find out that the treaty was never ratified and that they would be relocated to a reservation or even exterminated (no longer recognized by the government.) This was especially common among more western tribes.
