Quoted from CICERO

Can't do that, they were the original enemy of the state.  They were the savages of their time.  Like Al Qaeda, America couldn't understand why they would attack the foreigners invading their land.

I just read something about Geronimo died as a prisoner of war.  Geronimo: June 16, 1829 – February 17, 1909

One hundred years ago he died.

How long was the war against the Native Americans?  Around 200 years?

I guessing from somewhere in the 1600's to the 1800's.

Geronimo fought in the was for 30 years, born in 1829 + had to be at least 16 years old puts the war lasting to around 1875.

So I guess, the war with the Natives, ended about the same time as the war with the south.

Thanks to superior firepower.

It was much more recent than that... 1918!

The Battle of Bear Valley was a small engagement fought in 1918 between a band of Yaquis and a
detatchment of United States Army soldiers. On January 9, 1918, elements of the American 10th
Cavalry Regiment detected about thirty armed Yaquis in Bear Valley, Arizona, a large area that was
commonly used as a passage across the international border with Mexico. A short firefight ensued,
which resulted in the death of the Yaqui commander and the capture of nine others. Though the
conflict was merely a skirmish, it was the last time the United States Army engaged hostile native
Americans in combat and thus has been seen as one of the final battles of the American Indian Wars.
