They had no central government and they didn't have "territory" they enforced fuck off lines against others when they squatted down on some nice land
you're arbitrating material that you don't know anything about
the United States became a nation in 1776
the fuck off lines always changed because they were nomadic lol
they had no "territory" or static paginated development as a nation
but they didn't keep the same boundaries
You're making the plains sound small
that is very dishonest
They literally refused to own land and they weren't a government
they were tribes
You're literally saying it was their land
nomadic tribes that spiritually refuse to own the land are not a government claiming a land to be their nation
meaning if the US took land they squatted on
it wasn't their's
the most that ever happened was the Iroquois formed a confederacy for things like agriculture
the injuns slaughtered europeans too
it wasn't a friendly day for anyone
They refused to own the land and they went into areas they didn't even live in to attack Europeans
they literally refused to own land
it's not their's
the fact that they refused to own land knocks your argument down
It's literally in any anthropological study of them
they even say it
such as Tecumseh
Tecumseh spoke to William Henry Harrison
And the fact that the natives were nomadic means they didnt own land
it's a checkmate
last I check if you owned land you don't move around and leave it behind
ok so you're going to strawman
They regularly led incursions into other tribe's territory to set up their own lands
for squatting
Your argument is that Europeans stole native american land and their identity
Native Americans all the way to South America still keep their culture in and out of reservation zones
they culturually didn't believe in land ownership
The proof is in the priori
they were nomadic and had nomadic living arrangements
therefore they didn't hold land as ownership
they used it as a communal resource
otherwise there is no point is evilly migrating and leading incursions and slaughtering other fellow native americans that we seem to forget here
yeah
