The aftermath of Lewis and Clark's expedition was not all positive to the Mandan natives. The most devastating epidemic was the smallpox outbreak in the year 1837 which killed a lot of people, the epidemic was important in uniting the surviving people in Mandan and Hidatsa who later engaged in trading, farming and hunting
