As settlers pushed further west in the United States, many Native American tribes were forcibly relocated to designated reservations, often located in less desirable lands. This process was driven by policies such as the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which aimed to clear land for European-American settlers. Additionally, many tribes faced displacement through conflict, treaties that were frequently broken, and the encroachment of settlers on their ancestral lands. This resulted in significant loss of territory, culture, and autonomy for Native American peoples.
