Are you a history buff? I was wondering if Custer's last stand was the end of the Indian Wars? True of False

Answer 1

False the goverment is still at war with some tribes

Answer 2

False. Think now. Would the United States, after a defeat like that one,just throw it's hands up and say "OK, never mind. Sorry for bothering you"? If anything, it riled the armed forces into greater attacks and enslavement of the Indians. The end of these wars was probably the incident at Wounded Knee.

Answer 3

False

Answer 4

Everyone above missed the last battle between the US government and Indians.....the siege of Wounded Knee, circa 1973. People died on both sides....you can see one of the Indian's AK47 used during the siege, on display at the National american Indian Museum in DC.

Answer 5

The final "battle" was wounded Knee. This massacre occured after the Dawes Act had been passed. This act forced Indians onto reservations, forced them to abandon tribal traditons. The act tried to turn indians into "white people" Wounded knee was a response to the indians preforming their "ghost dance"

Answer 6

No, here is a list of Indian conflicts after the Battle of Little Bighorn:

Nez Perce Campaign or Nez Perce War (1877) — Nez Perce under Chief Joseph retreated from the 1st U.S. Cavalry through Idaho, Yellowstone Park, and Montana after a group of Nez Perce attacked and killed a group of Anglo settlers in early 1877.
Bannock Campaign or Bannock War (1878 — elements of the 21st U.S. Infantry, 4th U.S. Artillery, and 1st U.S. Cavalry engaged the natives of southern Idaho including the Bannock and Paiute when the tribes threatened rebellion in 1878, dissatisfied with their land allotments.
Cheyenne Campaign or Cheyenne War (1878–1879) — a conflict between the United States' armed forces and a small group of Cheyenne families.
Sheepeater Campaign or Sheepeater War (May – August 1879) — on May 1, 1879, three detachments of soldiers pursued the Idaho Western Shoshone throughout central Idaho during the last campaign in the Pacific Northwest.
Ute Campaign or Ute War (September 1879–November 1880) — on September 29, 1879, some 200 men, elements of the 4th U.S. Infantry and 5th U.S. Cavalry under the command of Maj. T. T. Thornburgh, were attacked and besieged in Red Canyon by 300 to 400 Ute warriors. Thornburgh's group was rescued by forces of the 5th and U.S. 9th Cavalry Regiment in early October, but not before significant loss of life had occurred. The Utes were finally pacified in November 1880.
Pine Ridge Campaign (November 1890–January 1891) — numerous unresolved grievances led to the last major conflict with the Sioux. A lopsided engagement that involved almost half the infantry and cavalry of the Regular Army caused the surviving warriors to lay down their arms and retreat to their reservations in January 1891.
Wounded Knee Massacre (December 29, 1890) — Sitting Bull's half-brother, Big Foot, and some 200 Sioux were killed by the U.S. 7th Cavalry (only fourteen days before, Sitting Bull had been killed with his son Crow Foot at Standing Rock Agency in a gun battle with a group of Indian police that had been sent by the American government to arrest him).

Answer 7

FALSE!
