jan 1, 1867 - Indian Peace Commission 1867 (Taylyn)
Description:
In 1867 The Indian Peace Commission was formed as a significant effort by the U.S. government to resolve conflicts between Native American tribes and settlers in the Great Plains. These conflicts, often referred to as the Indian Wars, had escalated as white settlers moved westward, interrupting Indigenous lands. The U.S attempted to manage and reduce the conflicts with Native American tribes during westward expansion, but efforts were undermined with broken promises and continued moving onto Indigenous lands.
