James K. Polk's administration pursued a policy of westward expansion, which often involved negotiating treaties with Native American tribes. One significant deal was the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, which ended the Mexican-American War and resulted in the U.S. acquiring vast territories, displacing many Native American tribes in the process. While Polk's government did negotiate treaties, they frequently favored American interests and often resulted in the forced removal of Native Americans from their ancestral lands. Overall, Polk's policies contributed to the further marginalization of Native American communities.

James Madison's approach to Native Americans was largely influenced by the pressures of westward expansion and the interests of settlers. He sought to negotiate treaties that would secure land for the United States while attempting to maintain a degree of diplomacy with Native tribes. However, his administration often prioritized American expansion over indigenous rights, leading to conflicts and the loss of Native American lands. Madison's policies reflected the broader trend of the era, which frequently marginalized Native American interests in favor of national growth.

No- Polk did not fight in duels. He relied on the law and his speaking skills to deal with adversaries. Aaron Burr and Andrew Jackson both shot others in duels.
