The armed resistance of Native Americans to white settlement in the West effectively ended due to a combination of military defeat, loss of resources, and shifting policies by the U.S. government. Key conflicts, such as the Indian Wars, resulted in significant casualties and the forced relocation of tribes to reservations. Additionally, the systematic approach of assimilation and the establishment of treaties, often broken by the government, further diminished Native American resistance and sovereignty. Ultimately, the combination of these factors led to the decline of armed resistance.
