Answer 1

Answer:

Treaty of Greenville, also called Treaty of Fort Greenville, (August 3, 1795), settlement that concluded hostilities between the United States and an Indian confederation headed by Miami chief Little Turtle by which the Indians ceded most of the future state of Ohio and significant portions of what would become the states of Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan.As American settlers moved into the Northwest Territory in the years following the American Revolution, their advance was opposed by a loose alliance of mainly Algonquian-speaking peoples. The Shawnee and the Delaware, both of whom had been driven west by prior territorial encroachments, joined the Ottawa, Ojibwa, Miami, and Potawatomi in the Northwest Indian Confederation. Led by Little Turtle, the Native American confederation skirmished with settlers and Kentucky militia in the late 1780s.In an effort to pacify the region and to stake a conclusive claim to areas that had been ceded by the British under the terms of the Peace of Paris (1783), a series of expeditions were dispatched to the Northwest Territory. The first, under Gen. Josiah Harmar, was routed in a pair of engagements in October 1790. The second, led by Northwest Territory governor Arthur St. Clair, was crushed on November 4, 1791, in one of worst defeats ever suffered by the U.S. military against a Native American force. Emboldened by the victories and the promise of support from the British, who still occupied strategic forts within the Northwest Territory, the confederacy appeared to have checked the American advance. In 1792 Pres. George Washington appointed Gen. “Mad” Anthony Wayne as commander of the United States Army and tasked him with crushing the resistance.
