What role did great Britain play in the conflict between the US and American Indians on the westren frontier?

Great Britain played an important role in the conflict between the United States and American Indians on the western frontier. They had a strong presence in the region and sought to maintain their power and influence in North America. In the late 1700s Great Britain signed several treaties with some of the Native American tribes such as the Iroquois and Delaware Nations in which they promised to protect these communities from US expansion. As the US continued to establish new settlements often in violation of these treaties Great Britain sought to mediate the conflict and protect their Native allies. In some cases British soldiers were dispatched to the western frontier to protect Native American lands and support their sovereignty.

Great Britain also provided support to the Native Americans in other ways. They supplied weapons ammunition and other supplies to the tribes and provided them with access to the British trading networks. In addition the British Crown offered refuge to some of the Native American leaders such as the Shawnee chief Tecumseh and provided a safe haven for them to organize and plan their resistance to US expansion.

What was the trial of tears?

It was a march in which the United States Government forced Native Americans to relocate approximately 1500 miles from their homes. Approximately 1/3 of the Native Americans on the march died due to the elements and lack of food and water. Native American tribes that moved later settled in Oklahoma, Texas and other western states.

Why were these Native Americans relocated? Why at this time in history? What were their options if they did not want to move? Was this a federal mandated relocation? How did the idea of relocating these people originate? Who opposed this? What were the advantages and disadvantages for the Native Americans who made this move? An unbiased research project should answer these questions and initiate additional questions.

Who forced the Navajo to leave their land?

Kit Carson and the USArmy defeated most of the Navajo people in 1864 and forced them to march about 450 miles in the Long Walk to Fort Sumner in NM territory ( also known as Bosque Redondo) in 1864. Brigadier General James H. Carleton ordered Carson to kill all the men of the tribe. He refused and tried to resign in February 3, 1863. His resignation was rejected. Under Carleton's direction, Carson instituted a scorched earth policy from Sept 1863 to Jan 1864. Carson got the Ute tribe, longstanding Navajo enemies to assist in burning crops, fruit trees, and homes and killing all livestock. About 10% died on the forced march to Ft Sumner and the bad conditions in the internments camps in the next four years.

Some, were never defeated and hid out especially on the northern flanks of Navajo Mountain with Hoskinini. Other's surrendered to protect their people. For example Ganado Mucho, in Navajo known as Totsohnii Hastiin ( man of big water clan), turned himself and his people in when he heard people were starving. He brought his huge herds to Ft Sumner with him.

In 1868 they were allowed to return to their ancestral homeland.
