The Red War for the West primarily involved several Native American tribes, most notably the Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho, who united against encroaching U.S. settlers and government forces. This conflict, particularly during the 1870s and 1880s, was fueled by the desire to protect their land, resources, and way of life from expansionist policies. The war included significant events such as the Great Sioux War of 1876, which featured battles like the Little Bighorn. Other tribes, such as the Nez Perce and Apache, also engaged in resistance during this broader struggle for territory and autonomy.
