Detailed explanation-1: -During the early 1800s, Tecumseh, a leader of the Shawnee, attempted to unite American Indian tribes west of the Appalachian Mountains into a confederation. Tecumseh believed that the land did not belong to a single tribe. In reality, no one owned the land except for the Master of Life, the Shawnees’ principal god.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tecumseh was a Shawnee warrior chief who organized a Native American confederacy in an effort to create an autonomous Indian state and stop white settlement in the Northwest Territory (modern-day Great Lakes region).
Detailed explanation-3: -Tecumseh’s Confederacy: This was because he believed to properly transfer land to colonists was if all the tribes agreed. He believed the land belonged to the Master of Life, Shawnee’s main god, and therefore no one tribe could sell the land.
