"The Black Hawk War was a brief conflict between the United States and Native Americans led by Black Hawk, a Sauk leader.

Black Hawk's motives were ambiguous, but records show that he was hoping to avoid bloodshed while resettling on tribal land that had been given to the United States in the 1804 Treaty of St. Louis."
