On November 29, 1864, 700 militiamen from the Colorado Territory launched an assault on communities inhabited by Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians. U.S. Army Col. John Chivington, a Methodist minister and a freemason, served as the militia's commander.

<h3>What was the cause of the Sand Creek Massacre?</h3>

The long-running struggle for dominance of eastern Colorado's Great Plains was one of the main factors leading to the Sand Creek Massacre. Ownership of the region north of the Arkansas River and up to the Nebraska border was secured by the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1851, which also included the Cheyenne and Arapahoe.

Around 160 men, women, and children, including the elderly and infirm, were killed in a surprise attack by the U.S. Army on a non-combatant encampment of Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians in 1864 at the Big Sandy Creek in southeast Colorado.

How did the u.s intervene mexico
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

irst supporting and then repudiating Mexican regimes during the period 1910-1920.[1]

Explanation:

The United States involvement in the Mexican Revolution was varied and seemingly contradictory, first supporting and then repudiating Mexican regimes during the period 1910-1920.[1] For both economic and political reasons, the U.S. government generally supported those who occupied the seats of power, whether they held that power legitimately or not. A clear exception was the French Intervention in Mexico, when the U.S. supported the beleaguered liberal government of Benito Juárez at the time of the American Civil War (1861-1865). Prior to Woodrow Wilson's inauguration on March 4, 1913, the U.S. Government focused on just warning the Mexican military that decisive action from the U.S. military would take place if lives and property of U.S. nationals living in the country were endangered.[2] President William Howard Taft sent more troops to the US-Mexico border but did not allow them to intervene in the conflict,[3][4] a move which Congress opposed.[4] Twice during the Revolution, the U.S. sent troops into Mexico.
