Question

Indigenous Peoples kept parcels of land for their tribe in return for giving larger parcels to the U.S. By treaty. Indigenous Peoples were relocated to land with which they had no historical connection. The President was allowed to break up tribal lands into small allotments to be parceled out to individuals.

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Here we have no question. Just a statement. We assume that the topic is the relationship between North American Indian tribes and the United States federal government, particularly the treaties that were signed.

If that is the case, our comment would be the following.

In the history of the United States, the Reservation System was the creation of the US federal government to allow white people to settle land that belonged to the Native American Indian tribes.

White people wanted more land to settle in and exploit the many raw materials and natural resources to make a profit. Native American Indians honored and respect nature for what it gave them. Two completely different points of view.

The government signed different treaties with the chiefs of the tribes from 1744 to 1871 when the US government stopped recognizing the tribes as independent nations. In 1887, with the creation of legislation called the Dawes Act, the US government eliminated the Reservation System and split the land of the Native American Indian tribes to form personal plots.
