    The US Army affected the Native Americans in the West because they were considered a foreign nation and the Army fought them in the last quarter of the 1800s in order to take their land and expand the US limits.

    The Office of Indians Affairs was established to administer the nation's "Manifest Destiny" objectives. The government would make treaties with the Native Americans so they could move them into reservations and they could expand the US borders.

    The Dawes Act was an Act that authorized the Federal government to break up tribes lands by partitioning them into individual plots. The Native Americans should accept individual allotments to become US citizens. The main objective of the Act was to assimilate Native American Indians into mainstream US society by annihilating their cultural and social traditions.
