Who is the Dakota Uprising fighting with?

1 answer

The Dakota Uprising, also known as the Sioux Uprising of 1862, primarily involved the Dakota people (specifically the Eastern Dakota or Sioux) fighting against the United States government. The conflict arose due to issues such as broken treaties, failed promises of land and resources, and increasing encroachment by settlers. The uprising began in August 1862 in Minnesota and resulted in a series of violent confrontations between Dakota warriors and U.S. military forces, as well as settlers. The conflict highlighted broader issues of colonialism and the struggles of Indigenous peoples in the face of westward expansion by the United States.
