Step-by-step explanation:

Tecumseh's plan was to unite all the Indians and oppose forced relocation by the Americans. Tecumseh got as far as to start building a settlement for Indians and started uniting the Indians with the help of his brother, the Prophet. However, he was stopped when General Harrison and his troops destroyed Prophetstown (the settlement for the Indians) and defeated Tecumseh's band of warriors. Tecumseh eventually died in a military camp.

The significance of the battle of Tippecanoe is that it was the end of his dream of a Native American Confederacy.
