As settlers began to claim Indian lands in the South, tensions escalated between Native American tribes and European settlers, leading to violent conflicts such as the Creek War and the Seminole Wars. The U.S. government often sided with settlers, implementing policies that forced Native Americans from their ancestral lands through treaties, many of which were made under duress. This encroachment resulted in significant loss of life, culture, and territory for Indigenous peoples, culminating in the tragic Trail of Tears, where thousands were forcibly relocated. The settlers' expansion also contributed to the broader narrative of westward expansion and Manifest Destiny in the United States.

Discuss white-indian relations from the colonial period through mid nineteenth century?

When white settlers first began to come to the Americas, tribes reacted on either a friendly or hostile basis. A main issue was ideology. While the European settlers believed in staking a claim and owning land, in the Native American culture, there was no ownership of land. As more settlers began coming, this problem intensified, with natives and whites attacking each other's villages. Once the Revolutionary War had been fought and won, natives were pushed further west as the United States expanded its property claims. Hostile reactions from the natives over their land being seized led to the Indian Removal Acts, and the infamous Trail of Tears.
