The settlement of the Great Plains in the United States primarily occurred during the 19th century, driven by the Homestead Act of 1862, which encouraged westward expansion by offering land to settlers. This region, characterized by its vast prairies and harsh climate, attracted farmers, ranchers, and immigrants seeking new opportunities. However, settlers faced challenges such as drought, isolation, and conflicts with Native American tribes. Over time, advancements in agriculture and technology transformed the Great Plains into a significant agricultural hub.
