U.S.-Dakota War - Treaties

From 1778 to 1871, the United States negotiated treaties with various Indian tribes to support westward expansion. These treaties were agreements whereby Indian nations would exchange their rights to hunt and to live on parcels of land for trade goods, yearly cash payments, and the right to remain on part of their homelands. These treaties, which were almost wholly dishonored by the the U.S. government, helped set the stage for later U.S. government actions such as the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Indian nations who resisted treaty attempts found themselves facing forced removal further westward to "Indian Territories."
Beginning in 1805, Indian nations in the area that became Minnesota made concessions of land for specific uses by the U.S. government through treaties. In exchange, they received money, goods, and various promises. Learn more at www.usdakotawar.org/history/treaties

This story is about the most stubborn, the notorious leader to actually risisted settlers, who wanted to take over his entire land or territory! Also the peaceful Dakota sioux chief Drifting goose 'Magabobdu'. The leader of the last small band of over a hundred western Dakota hunkpati sioux during the entire 1870's. Defiantly still Living in the James River Valley on armidil Island near the ancient Mandan mound village. Drifting goose was known as the trouble maker of notorious in nature! By the American settlers own words about him. He lived with the people in the several thousand of acres of land he still owns. His cause trouble against American settlers in his territory from the James River valley to the little sioux River near present day sioux falls SD. Magabobdu Drifting goose led raiding parties to steal cattle an corn stalks, chasing intruders off his territory, his responsible for destroying properties and break rail road spikes from the rail road survivors. Who couldn't used the working objects later. In the mid 1870s with the help of former general Sidley and the minnesota legislation government in Saint Paul MN.

In winter of 1880 we'll living in a birch bark tipi encampment and the American intruders made him leave his cabin an living at it at the time. Drifting goose's young son died of sickness during the cold freezing winter months! In the spring of April of 1880.

Were his descents live today at the new town fort Thompson SD, a mile to the north. He was the last western Dakota to cede his land to the US government. There's a book on his life story called Drifting goose the mystic warrior or the peaceful Dakota sioux chief to risist the American settlers of Northeastern South Dakota during the 1870's. Drifting goose still owns land in the James River valley north of Redfield County SD the once untouched land. My historical information for today. Have a great fabulous wonderful day.

Look back in History....And clarify if you can. Does their Treaty Exist till today? If America is founded as a Union...does that mean they have the right to LEAVE THE UNION? And if they do so, then by International Right, the lands are theirs?
