Answer:

Treaties were struck with various tribes of Native Americans but they created favorable terms for the settlers, not the tribes.

Step-by-step explanation:

As more settlers moved west, they began to come into contact with Native tribes a lot more than before. They also began to desire their land. This caused tensions among the two groups. One of the ways in which colonists tried to solve these tensions was by strucking treaties with various tribes. However, these treaties generally benefitted the settlers, not the tribes, and they often led to the loss of land and property for the Native population.
