True or False? The War of 1812 gave the Indian tribes east of the Mississippi at least a glimmer of better?

days to come in their ongoing battle to resist white expansion.True or False? The War of 1812 gave the Indian tribes east of the Mississippi at least a glimmer of better?
False. The Indians had protected themselves by playing the British and French off each other until the 7 Years War. Once the French left, the only ones speaking for the Indians were the British. The Crown's attempts to limit colonists' expropriation of Indian lands were among the complaints Americans had against Britain. After the war of 1812, British forces were withdrawn from the west and all hope for the Indians died.True or False?

';Gayle'; is right. On October 5, 1813 at the Battle of the Thames the best Indian leader Tecumseh was killed. After the battle the tribes of his confederation surrendered at Detroit. The Native American Indian tribes would not threaten American colonists east of the Mississippi after 1813.
