The Seminole Wars were military conflicts in Florida between the United States and the Seminole and Miccosukee. The Seminole Wars were the longest and most expensive, in both human and financial cost to the United States, of the American Indian Wars.

By Who? Not by Floridians. My husband was born in South Florida lived most of his life just miles from the reservation in Broward, went to High School and was friends with members of the Billy Family, and like MOST locals, has GREAT RESPECT for The Seminole Tribe of Florida. Throughout the county are historical remnants of the Second Seminole War. AS well as a MULTI-MILLION Dollar Hotel and casino. Underrated IS NOT a term anyone here would use.

Key part of the history that was not told on this video...the original name of the war was not 'The Seminole War', until later. The original name as denoted in the military history archives is 'The Negro War'...it then changed to the 'The indian War' and later to 'The Seminole War'...each name change gathered more 'citizen' awareness of the call for 'freedom and security' for the neighboring states. It also caused a divide amongst the Seminole / Maroon, which was critical for the success of the US Army. Wonderful American History that is fought to be removed from the educational learning curriculum.

I remember a western movie named ‘A Man Called Horse’ it was about an indian leader who fought against the US Calvary. It’s been years since I saw the movie but if the movie was based on John Horse he was portrayed by a white man looking like a red man depicting an Indian. The truth comes out eventually.

Im surprised you didn’t cover the part where the us government faked a peace treaty with Osceola and chopped his head off and never returned it, at least that’s what I was told as a child from my grandpa

@piratepete842 2 ай бұрын

Actually Osceolas head was removed after his death by the physician at Fort Moultrie..Osceolas grave is outside the gate of Moultrie..of interest around 1965 during a visit there I overheard a ranger telling a man that a group from Florida had recently stated that they had snuck in and disinterred Osceolas remains and returned them to Florida..about 3 years ago while visiting there I brought up that rumor to a ranger..he stated that he vaguely remembered hearing about it, but felt that it was likely unsubstantiated..also stating that due to respect no intrusive studies were to happen..so there is the mystery of Osceolas remains..one can visit Moultrie..it's located on Sullivan's island

Of interest was the loss of the bullion vessel El Cazador off of Louisiana..the specie aboard was to replenish Spains depleted assets in its south eastern holdings..with the loss of it they had little leverage and thus ceded this territory to England who gave it back to Spain who gave it to the US as per the mentioned treaty..Spanish land grants were to be abolished..but some were recognized until it was decided by the government to nullify them as in the case of that land in Tampa where fort Brooke was established

I find it very disappointing how you don't touch on the American Army's disgrace of capturing Seminole warriors under white flags of truce. You also didn't touch on how Osceola was transferred to South Carolina where he knew he was going to die. His last wish was to be buried in Florida where he was from so he could rest in peace. Instead he was beheaded after death, his decapitated body was buried in a Fort in South Carolina and his head was used as a toy to terrorize children and was eventually traded off and lost. Yea...You could have done better on how ***** us Americans really were.
