The Fort Peck Indian Reservation Facts

Lizzy0716 — 2017-11-02 17:47:46 UTC

The Fort Peck Indian Reservation is made up of a couple different Indian Tribes. The reservation has 6,800 Assiniboine and Sioux on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation and the other approximately 3,900 tribal members are the ones who live off the Reservation. The reservation is actually located in northeastern Montana. There is a prosperous industrial park that really helps the community as well as Montana. Farming, oil, and ranching is helping the reservation also. The reservation actually has a very nice economy, in their small little community.

The reservation is actually the third largest in the state. That is a fairly large reservation. The Sioux on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation are also a part of the band called the Nakotas.
They were very brave warriors that would fight hostile tribes AND white intruders. The Sioux, like quite a few other tribes, came from Canada and/or Minnesota. The tribe gave up much of their homeland in a treaty with the government. They then moved on to the west. The Sioux the went to the Dakotas or occupied much of eastern Montana, Wyoming, and also Nebraska. They had made the deal that in turn for the government building railroad on their land, that they would get The Powder River Country and part of the Black Hills. Before the ink was dry on the treaty, there was gold found in the Black Hills. The "rush" certainly did come in, but the Sioux didn't get what they should have gotten. They had given up much of their land, or any Indian Tribe's land, that the government just came in and totally stole. The Sioux had been cheating out of a deal that they didn't even have to make. The land that they would be given was either already theirs or just another tribe's. It wasn't the governments to give away. The Sioux had been completely betrayed, and the government was absolutely untrustworthy.

Then in 1876, the government tried to order the Indians onto Reservations. The Sioux would not take it. They refused their enemies' wishes. The Sioux won the battle against a man named Custer. This was a great victory, but eventually the Indians were forced into their reservations, not voluntarily.

The Sioux and Assiniboine lived in the northeast part of Montana. They were 2 different tribes and the tribes even had a dam named after them. They had a battle that was a great victory for the Indians and it changed there way of life. The Fort Peck Indian Reservation's food was once scarce and 300 died of starvation in the winter alone. So it was a hard life for the Fort Peck Indians to survive through. But they did.

They would dig a small hole in the ground and they would get sticks and a ball made from buffalo. They would see if they could get the ball in the hole the fastest and the person that made it in would win. They then would go up against another person.
