in 1789, the united states signed the treaty of fort harmar with several indian tribes that occupied areas of the northwest territory, to settle issues related to trade, as well as the boundary between their lands and united states settlement. the us did not address the indians' major grievance about american settlers moving into their lands, particularly in the western reserve, where there were disputes over land. although congress authorized governor arthur st. clair to give land back to the indians, he did not do so. conflict increased as the indians tried to push the settlers out. after years of warfare in the region, they were defeated. the us signed the treaty of greenville (1795) with the indians, which secured the safety of settlers to leave the forts and develop their farms.
