Some Americans, particularly during the westward expansion in the 19th century, sought to acquire Native American land for farming, settlement, and resource extraction. Many viewed this land as essential for economic growth and the fulfillment of Manifest Destiny, the belief that the U.S. was destined to expand across the continent. This desire often led to the forced removal and displacement of Native American tribes through treaties, warfare, and government policies like the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Ultimately, these actions resulted in significant loss of land, culture, and sovereignty for Native American peoples.
Yes, some Native American tribes did fight with other Native American tribes. Some tribes even kept other Native Americans as slaves or hostages and destroyed villages.
Because the settlers and soldiers were forcing them off of their native land. These same settlers and soldiers were also assaulting the culture of the tribes in question, the background culture behind native Europeans is against every Native American belief (in actual practice).
The American Revolution had a profound and often detrimental effect on Native Americans. Many tribes were caught in the conflict, with some siding with the British in hopes of protecting their lands from American expansion, while others allied with the colonists. After the revolution, the new American government largely ignored Native American rights and land claims, leading to increased encroachment on their territories and subsequent loss of land. Ultimately, the war intensified the marginalization and displacement of many Native American communities.

The Dawes Act of 1887 aimed to assimilate Native Americans into American society by allotting individual plots of land to families and emphasizing farming and land ownership. While it did lead to some economic opportunities for a small number of Native Americans, the overall success was limited. Many tribes lost significant portions of their ancestral land, and the policy often undermined traditional communal living and cultural practices. Ultimately, the act contributed to a further decline in Native American populations and sovereignty rather than achieving meaningful assimilation.

The colonists settled on the Native Americans' land, and they destroyed some villages. Some colonists did not treat Native Americans justly. Others captured them and sold them into slavery.
