Washington decided to send troops to the Ohio Valley to confront Little Turtle's forces as part of a broader strategy to assert American control over the Northwest Territory and protect settlers from Native American attacks. The region was crucial for westward expansion, and conflicts with Native American tribes were escalating. By sending troops, Washington aimed to secure U.S. interests, stabilize the area, and reinforce the government's authority in dealing with Native American resistance. Ultimately, it was part of the larger context of U.S.-Native American relations during the early years of the republic.

Who was little turtle?

hi! I actually just finished studying this. Chief little turtle was the chief of the Miami Indians in the late 1700's. He was mad because the American settlers were invading their Indian territory by moving onto it. So, little turtle would tell different groups of his tribe to attack the Americans. This angered Washington. Washington sent his troops to settle things. The compromise was that if the Americans could remain on that land, the Indians would receive $20,000 worth of goods from the American Government. Hope this helps!
