Abstract

This study is about the Indian Problem in the History of American expansionism. The 13 colonies and their dream of Manifest Destiny. The study shows how the Indians taught immigrants how to survive in America, but in return, the Americans saw them as savages who needed to be eliminated. To understand all this, I carried out a comprehensive study, on books, Google Scholar, newspapers, Movies, and others. what I found was that Apart from William Penns, who paid the Indians for the Land the King gave him, the new settlers with the dream of Manifest Destiny were ruthless to the Indians and they never respected the agreements they made with them. That was why Buffalo Bill said that every Indian outbreak you see, originated from a broken promise.
