The correct response is:

Native Americans lost their land to the U.S. government and American settlers.

The Treaty of Greenville, signed in 1795, marked the end of the Northwest Indian War and resulted in significant territorial concessions by Native American tribes in the Ohio Valley, including parts of present-day Indiana. This treaty led to American settlers expanding further into Native American lands, exacerbating conflict and diminishing Native American sovereignty and control over their territories.
