Native Americans in the US did not due well as the westward expansion continued. White settlers were in constant conflict with Native Tribes and treaties signed by the US government with Native Tribes were broken all the time. The US wanted to not eliminate Natives, but rather to have them settle in reservations. This would of course infringe upon their freedoms. Basically, white settlers saw Natives as obstacles to their mining and farming interests. It must ne noted that Native Americans throughout the Western Hemisphere all suffered under the European invasions of the New World.
