1 nov 1861 - Civil War in Indian Territory
Description:
During the Civil War, the five civilized tribes allied with the Confederacy due to the efforts of Albert Pike. The natives sided with the Confederacy because they were promised things like protection from invasion and guaranteed them the right to self-govern. However, not all American Indians were unhappy with the decision of siding with the Confederacy and remained loyal to the United States.Ajouté au bande de temps:
