After the American Revolutionary War, Native Americans did not have control over the land west of the thirteen colonies. The Treaty of Paris in 1783 ceded territories to the United States, which claimed sovereignty over these lands despite the presence of various Native American tribes. This led to ongoing conflicts and the displacement of Native Americans as settlers moved westward, often disregarding their rights to the land. Ultimately, the U.S. government pursued policies that further undermined Native American control and sovereignty.
