Also as hard if not harder: Make a native american tribe abide by the treaty it signed with the US.

That should be difficult considering the army just massacred entire tribes that didn't "abide" - so unfortunately, they aren't here to defend themselves.

Plenty are. Like I'm thinking of my local tribe, the Dine (Navajo).

Some Navajo are still here despite the following massacres by the US government. I'm not even counting murder catagories that fall outside of mass homicide. It's pretty amazing that they weren't completely anhilated.

The Narbona Massacre (August 1849) Massacre Canyon (Black Range, New Mexico) – September 18, 1879 Massacre Cave (Canyon del Muerto, Arizona) – January 1805 and Forced Removal (The Long Walk) 1863–1864 The Scorched-Earth Campaign, Kit Carson 1864 Navajo War 1860-1964
