  1. Puget Sound War

    Campaignbox Yakima War The Puget Sound War was an armed conflict that took place in the Puget Sound area of the state of Washington U.S. state Washington in 1855&ndash 56, between the United States Military , local militias and members of the Native Americans in the United States Native American tribes of the Nisqually tribe Nisqually , Muckleshoot , Puyallup tribe Puyallup , and Klickitat tribe Klickitat . Another component of the war, however, were raiders from the Haida people Haida and Tlingit people Tlingit who came into conflict with the United States Navy during contemporaneous raids on the native peoples of Puget Sound. Although limited in its magnitude, territorial impact and losses in terms of lives, the conflict is often remembered in connection to the Battle of Seattle 1856 1856 Battle of Seattle and to the execution of a central figure of the war, Nisqually Chief Leschi . The contemporaneous Yakima War may have been responsible for some events of the Puget Sound War, such as the Battle of Seattle, and it is not clear that the people of the time made a strong distinction between the two conflicts. The war The Puget Sound War began over land rights and ended in a cloud of controversy surrounding the hanging of Leschi.
