They numbered more than 10,000 people, and they occupied a vast territory. But in 1832 the last of their land went to the united states. What remained of their tribe was a single village, with less than 300 people. The reason this happen to the Illinois was colonial expansion, warfare and diseases, like small pox caused massive depopulation. So the Illinois and all their traditions were forgotten!]]> 2018-01-19 18:44:55 UTC https://padlet.com/hannah_hadraba/1s7br3fztuae/wish/222905603 Representatives and Senators of Illinois https://padlet.com/hannah_hadraba/1s7br3fztuae/wish/223590878 Representatives of Illinois-
