The Creeks, a Native American tribe, were primarily defeated by a combination of American forces and their allies during the Creek War (1813-1814). The most significant defeat came at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, where General Andrew Jackson led a decisive victory against the Creeks. This defeat ultimately resulted in the signing of the Treaty of Fort Jackson in 1814, which forced the Creeks to cede large portions of their land.

What happened the lower creeks and upper creeks in Oklahoma?

The Lower Creeks and Upper Creeks in Oklahoma experienced significant changes due to the forced removal of Native American tribes from their ancestral lands during the 1830s, known as the Trail of Tears. The Lower Creeks settled in the southeastern part of Oklahoma, while the Upper Creeks established themselves further north. This relocation led to the establishment of the Creek Nation, which faced challenges in preserving their culture and autonomy amid increasing pressures from settlers and government policies. Over time, the Creeks adapted to their new environment while maintaining their tribal identity.
