Two Worlds Collide<br />
1834 – Government set aside all of<br />
the Great Plains as “Indian lands”<br />
1850s – Government shifts policy,<br />
giving natives much smaller lands<br />
The Indians continued to hunt on<br />
“their” land & conflict ensued<br />
White Settlers believed Indians<br />
forfeited their rights to the land<br />
by not settling down to “Improve” it<br />
The Plains Indians’ way of life was<br />
being destroyed by White Settlers<br />

onto <strong>Native</strong> <strong>American</strong> Lands<br />
R. R. expansion only added to this problem<br />
