Oklahoma's Indigenous people have primarily been affected by the US government through policies of relocation and confinement to territories set aside for displaced Indigenous groups. This reflects a broader historical trend where Native American tribes were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands, notably through events like the Trail of Tears. While they have been affected by a variety of policies over time, the statement about being relocated and confined to specific territories captures a significant aspect of their experience with the US government.
