Most likely the desired answer is the Sauk people.

The last stand in the old Northwest Territory is referred to as the Black Hawk War (1832), named after the Sauk warrior Black Hawk who led Sauk, Fox and Kickapoo tribal peoples in an attempt to reclaim land in Illinois that previously had been surrendered to the US government.
