South Dakota's boundaries were primarily established through the process of territorial organization and treaties with Native American tribes. Following the Lewis and Clark expedition in the early 1800s and subsequent westward expansion, the area was initially part of the Nebraska Territory in 1854. The Dakota Territory was created in 1861, encompassing present-day South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming. South Dakota became a separate state in 1889, with its borders defined by the division of the Dakota Territory.
