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.

I assume your talking about the HUNS... When the empire split in two the east had more gold and more resources and the dying west had to suffer all the barbarian attacks like the huns... The East quite simply was more prepared and had more walls and guards to defend their border also the Eastern Empire had the river danube north of them which helped deflect the Hunnic invasions and other barbarian invasion more west...
