The Southwest Indian Wars involved various Native American tribes, including the Apache, Navajo, and Pueblo peoples, who resisted U.S. expansion into their territories. Key figures included leaders like Geronimo and Cochise from the Apache, as well as Manuelito from the Navajo. On the U.S. side, military leaders such as General George Crook and General Nelson A. Miles played significant roles in the conflicts. The wars spanned from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century, culminating in significant displacement and loss of life for Native peoples.
