How were American Indians forced off their lands?•As European settlers moved to America between 1500 and 1750 and pushed onto American Indian lands, conflicts would occur so European countries would sign treaties to try and set boundaries.
WHY SIGN TREATIES?U.S.A =LAND, RESOURCES

How were American Indians forced off their lands?
After the French and Indian war settlers begin pouring into the Ohio River Valley
and the southern part of the U.S. Although King George III signs the
Proclamation of 1763 outlawing settlement west of the Appalachians, the settlers ignore his law and push
further onto Indian lands.

Later, the U.S. government would sign treaties as well! They would sign
more than 400 treaties!

Signed Treaties•Treaty of Doak’s Stand (1820)- The U.S. signs a treaty with Pushmataha. His people don’t want to sign, but they know they will be forced off their lands (they are supposed to get land west of the Mississippi and have schools built in return)
By the way, we don’t have any rights in the
new United States!
