From the native American perspective, the cause of the War of 1812 was due to repeated invasions of native American homelands. Tecumseh organized an alliance with many other native tribes, as well as the British, but ultimately, they were "defeated" as they realized the power of the American army. Many native Americans were killed and removed from their homes. Although there was no clear victory, the Americans assumed they won.

An important figure was Napoleon, despite not being part of the War of 1812 but he was in contact with American leaders. That concerned the British because of their war in Europe with Napoleon.

The perspective of the Native Americans on the war of 1812 was that they were mostly supporting Britain in order to protect their land from American westward expansion. Although some decided to support the Americas or stay neutral, many decided to work together and form alliances with other tribes in order to help Britain defeat the Americans. Siding with Britain wasn't easy but they believed it would put an end to the expansion. The Shawnee war chief Tecumseh was a major leader for the Native Americans during this time and he was able to use different strategies to help the Natives work together in battle against the Americans. Sadly his death would mark the end of the Native campaign to drive back white settlers. In the end, they were defeated which led to the removal of most of the eastern woodland communities to the west.
