Detailed explanation-1: -In October 1813, Harrison defeated a joint English and Indian army at the Battle of the Thames. British occupation of the American Northwest ended as a result, and with the death of Tecumseh in the battle, hopes of building an Indian confederation ended.
Detailed explanation-2: -After attacking the British line and forcing a general rout, Harrison’s soldiers moved towards the last pocket of resistance led by Native American leader Tecumseh. After some initial brutal fighting ensued, Tecumseh was killed and what remained of his Native American army retreated, ending the battle.
Detailed explanation-3: -William Hull, and on October 5, 1813, decisively defeated the British and their Indian allies at the Battle of the Thames, in Ontario, Canada. Tecumseh was killed in the battle, and the British-Indian alliance was permanently destroyed. Thus ended resistance in the Northwest.
