Explanation:

During the American Civil war, what is now known as the U.S state of Oklahoma was called the Indian Territory which was an unorganized region where several Native American tribes lived. This territory served as the scene for several battles and armed conflicts between the Union and the Confederacy, which were fighting each other in order to settle which force was going to gain control of that region. The different battles that took place in this area are known as the Battles in Indian Territory, and all of them played a key role in determining what side was going to win the Civil War.
