The Treaty of Greenville.
The Treaty of Greenville
Native Americans in Ohio surrendered most of their land by signing the Treaty of Greenville in 1795. This treaty followed the defeat of a confederation of Native American tribes at the Battle of Fallen Timbers and established a boundary between Native American lands and areas open to European-American settlement. The agreement significantly reduced Native American territory in Ohio and allowed for increased westward expansion by settlers.

The Treaty of Fort Stanwix, signed in 1768 between the British government and several Native American tribes, facilitated expansion into the Ohio Valley. It established a boundary line that permitted British settlers to move westward into the region, which was previously contested territory. This treaty aimed to stabilize relations between settlers and Native Americans but ultimately contributed to further conflicts as settlers continued to encroach on indigenous lands.

The Treaty of Fort Stanwix, signed in 1768, declared that the Ohio River would no longer serve as a permanent boundary between Indigenous lands and those of American settlers. This treaty was primarily between the British government and various Native American tribes, allowing for the expansion of colonial settlement into the Ohio Valley. It marked a significant shift in land rights and territorial claims in North America.
The Treaty of Greenville was signed at Fort Greenville (now Greenville, Ohio), on August 3, 1795, between a coalition of American Indian tribes, known as the Western Confederacy, and frontiermen of the United States; it followed the Native American loss at the Battle of Fallen Timbers the previous year. The treaty ended the Northwest Indian War in Ohio Country.The United States was represented by General "Mad Anthony" Wayne, who led the victory at Fallen Timbers. In exchange for goods to the value of $20,000 (such as blankets, utensils, and domestic animals), the American Indian tribes ceded to the United States large parts of modern-day Ohio, the future site of downtown Chicago,[ nb 1][ 2] the Fort Detroit area, Maumee, Ohio Area,[ 3] and the Lower Sandusky Ohio Area.[ 4]This depiction of the treaty negotiations may have been painted by one of Anthony Wayne's officers, c. 1795.American Indian leaders who signed the treaty included leaders of these bands and tribes:WyandotDelaware (Lenape; several bands)ShawneeOttawa (several bands)ChippewaPotawatomi (several bands)Miami (several bands)WeaKickapooKaskaskia
