The 11 million acres of land opened during the Oklahoma Land Rush in 1889 primarily belonged to the federal government. This land was previously designated as part of the unassigned lands in Indian Territory, which had been set aside for Native American tribes. The rush allowed non-Native settlers to claim parcels of this land, leading to a significant influx of settlers seeking agricultural opportunities and new homes.
