The land west of the Mississippi River was primarily inhabited by various Native American tribes, including the Sioux, Cheyenne, Arapaho, and Navajo, among others. These tribes had diverse cultures and lifestyles, often centered around hunting, fishing, and agriculture. European settlers and explorers began arriving in the 18th and 19th centuries, leading to significant changes in the Demographics and use of the land. The westward expansion ultimately resulted in the displacement of many Indigenous peoples.
