Explanation:

During the years of the Great Deportation, part of the Indians compromised with the federal government and moved to the West voluntarily, on more or less bearable conditions. The rest were deported by force. Already in the Indian territory, between supporters and opponents of the compromise, a real civil war began, which stopped only with the intervention of federal authorities. In the summer and autumn of 1861, the Five Civilized Tribes, one after another, adopted the Declaration of Independence and signed treaties of alliance with the Confederation. In the new treaties, for the most part, the main provisions of the old ones were rewritten. Native American republics were declared protectorates of Confederate States of America; the Confederate government took the obligations for the guardianship and protection of the Indians, previously assigned to the federal authorities.
