The government broke its promises not to open Indian territory to white settlement due to increasing pressure from settlers and economic interests seeking land for agriculture and expansion. The discovery of resources and the desire for westward expansion, particularly during events like the Gold Rush, further fueled this shift. Additionally, treaties with Native American tribes were often ignored or violated, reflecting a disregard for Indigenous sovereignty in favor of settler colonialism.

Why was the Oklahoma territory the last to be settled?

The Oklahoma Territory was the last to be settled primarily due to its designation as "Indian Territory," which was established to relocate Native American tribes from the eastern United States. The U.S. government initially restricted settlement in the area to protect Native lands. It wasn't until the Land Run of 1889 that settlers were allowed to claim land, spurred by the desire for new opportunities and fertile land. The late opening of Oklahoma for settlement was largely a result of ongoing conflicts and treaties with Native American tribes.
