Native American here were mostly killed off by the diseases that they never saw before. About 85-90% died of smallpox and the plague. Many were driven from their homelands by ranchers and farmers.

What did Spain start in the borderlands of new Spain to convert the Native Americans to Christianity?

In the very beginning of the Spaniards being in the Americas, they came with the dictate from the Pope that the native people (or just the people) had no souls so could be hunted down. Some believed that if the people were converted, they would then have souls so missionaries began to arrive and convert. However, it was the unknown diseases and superior weaponry that convinced many of the people that perhaps these newcomers did know the right way. Adaptability has always been a strong suit of the people. It is very sad that so much has been lost to the people. Theirs is a beautiful and responsible way of life in terms of spirituality.

Would the Dawes act been beneficial to the US?

The Dawes Act, enacted in 1887, aimed to assimilate Native Americans into American society by allotting them individual plots of land and granting U.S. citizenship. While it intended to promote farming and economic self-sufficiency, it resulted in significant loss of tribal land and cultural erosion, often disadvantaging Native Americans. The Act facilitated the transfer of large amounts of land to non-Native settlers, benefiting the U.S. economically but causing long-term harm to Indigenous communities. Thus, while it may have provided short-term benefits for some, the overall impact was detrimental to Native American societies.
