Summary Lakota chief Red Cloud gathered an army of warriors across three tribes in the Great Plains. In the late 1860s, he led his forces to victory in the only successful Indian war in the West against the United States. It resulted in a treaty to protect Lakota land and their way of life. But the U.S. government would break that treaty many times. How would it affect their lives and change the United States.
