                                                2. Big Reservations 1850s
                                                  1. Following early conflicts between tribes and whites, reservation land was divided up under the Fort Laramie Treaty (1851), with each tribe agreeing to its own large reservation.

                                                    1. The Battle of Little Bighorn was a victory for the Native Americans against the US Army, led by Custer. However, it led to a big effort from the Government to crush the Native Americans.
                                                    2. Smaller Reservations 1860s
                                                      1. Further conflicts led to reservations being cut in size. The Fort Lyon Treaty (1861) and the Treaty of Medicine Lodge Creek (1867) created smaller reservations.
