Black Hawk War : A brief conflict in 1832 involving the U.S. and Native Americans led by a Black Hawk, a Sauk leader. The war erupted soon after Black Hawk and a group composed of Sauks, Meskwakis, and Kickapoos known as the "British Band" crossed the Mississippi River into Illinois in April 1832. However, the intended course of action was to simply avoid bloodshed and resettle on the land that was ceded in a 1804 treaty.
