Native American
Wars (approx. 1817-1898)
"Indian Wars is the name used in the
United States to describe a series of conflicts
between White settlers or the federal government and the
native peoples of North America. The wars were the
result of the arrival of European colonizers who
continuously expanded their territory pushing the
indigenous populations westwards. The wars were spurred
by ideologies such as
Manifest Destiny, that held that the
United States was destined to expand from coast to
coast on the American continent, and which resulted in
the policy of
Indian removal by which Indigenous peoples were
removed from the areas where Europeans were settling
forcefully or by means of voluntary exchange of
territory through treaties."
