How does the treaty of Hopewell protect Indians lands?

The Treaty of Hopewell, signed in 1785 between the United States and several Native American tribes, aimed to establish peace and define boundaries for tribal lands. It recognized the sovereignty of the tribes and guaranteed their territories by delineating specific boundaries that settlers were not to encroach upon. The treaty also included provisions for protecting Native American rights and addressing grievances, although these protections were often disregarded in subsequent years. Ultimately, while the treaty sought to safeguard Indian lands, its effectiveness was undermined by continued westward expansion and broken agreements by the U.S. government.
