The US Frontier Wars officially ended in 1890 at the battle of Wounded Knee. The US was used to expanding, the men that had fought the "wars" needed a "reason for being" (a reason to exist), with the continent of the United States settled (in 1890), the US had to look elsewhere. That "elsewhere" was foreign adventures.
