After reading the Dawes Severalty Act of 1887, this is the summary I came up with:
This act took the Native American's lands and broke it up between the natives, hoping for the people to become more westernized and use more American techniques of farming. This also set up the reservations for the native people. This act also set up the taking and selling of native lands in the future.
