28 mar 1887 año - Reservation System
Descripción:
The Indian reservation system was created to keep Native Americans off of lands that European Americans wished to settle.
The reservation system allowed Indian tribes to govern themselves and to maintain some of their cultural and social traditions.
The Dawes Act of 1887 destroyed the reservation system by subdividing tribal lands into individual plots.
