Indigenous Wars refer to the conflicts between Indigenous peoples and colonial or settler forces, often sparked by land disputes, resource exploitation, and cultural imposition. These wars occurred in various regions, including North America, Australia, and parts of South America, as European powers expanded their territories. These conflicts often resulted in significant loss of life and displacement for Indigenous communities. Notable examples include the Pequot War in New England and the Australian Frontier Wars. The impacts of these wars continue to affect Indigenous populations today, influencing their rights, cultures, and relationships with governments.
