Detailed explanation-1: -There were several negative effects of Westward expansion. First, many Native American groups, especially the Plains Indians, were hurt by Western expansion. White settlers desecrated the buffalo population, which the Plains Indians relied on for sustenance and survival.
Detailed explanation-2: -Expansion of the United States moved steadily westward from the late 18th to the mid 19th centuries. This territorial movement displaced most of the Native American peoples who lived in those lands for thousands of years before the arrival of European colonists.
Detailed explanation-3: -Throughout U. S. history, Euro-Americans committed countless acts of violence against Native people. Such acts include extermination or genocide, theft of Indian lands and resources, captivity and enslavement, forced removals from homelands, and schooling aimed at destroying Native cultures. Violence continues today.
