| − | | + | |
| − | In the early 19th century between 1 and 2 million Indians lived in North America, consisting of about 600 tribes. During this time, white settlers began to move west. As they wanted land, they took the Indians' land. Because the Indians had different traditions, such as a simpler lifestyle, the whites thought: "They're savages, so they have less right to the land, but we in contrast have more right." In 1830 the American government forced the Indians in the east to move to land west of the Mississippi. But when finding gold and other minerals there the whites drove the Indians off again.

There were many battles against the whites in which the Indians had no chance. Many thousands of Indians died in battle, others died of diseases and many starved. This sometimes happened on the very long journeys to reservations the whites had chosen for them, and which were often on poor land. The whites weren't interested in it as not much grew there. Finally in 1900 the US Indian population was under 250,000.
