Settlements Under Attack-many settlements were left unguarded because men left to fight in the Civil
War
-Indians tried to stop westward expansion
-after war was over, federal troops tried to protect frontier and several peace treaties failed
-as settlers continued to move west, attacks continued
-as attacks continued, frontier line began moving back
east (instead of west)
-Quakers were appointed to act as agents (believed in non-violence) and tried to help Indians to make a living by farming but Indians still went hungry due to poor soil for farming and lack of supplies

Effect on Native Americans-Indians had to give up traditional way of life…buffalo hunting
-forced to learn how to farm
-had poor land, no farming experience, few supplies which caused them to face starvation
-federal government banned religious Indian practices
-many held their ceremonies in secret
-many Indians continued to speak their language as well as English
-Indians worked to preserve their customs, myths, and styles of dress despite the government’s efforts to eliminate them
-by the 1880s the Indian population had been greatly reduced
-many had been killed or moved out of state
-this opened land for farming and ranching for settlers
-settlers quickly moved onto lands Indians called home for 100s of years
