FRQ Plain Indians.
Subject:
US History [1]
In the latter half of the 19th century, the United States government was making efforts to limit Native American presence and culture in the Great Plains region. Technological developments helped drive the Native Americans back, and government actions were conniving in how they prompted mistreatment of the Plains Indians. Whether on purpose, or by accident, both technology and government led to the ultimate downfall of Native American culture and society in the plains.
