So I had read a old thread on an alternative timeline where the US had lost the War of 1812.

I had not noticed exactly how old it was, so posted. My apologies.

Anyway, I'm curious what folks think the Native Americans will be doing during all of this and, more importantly, what will happen to them after. People in the thread seemed to be concentrating on the US, Canada, England, and Spain as if there were no other people living on the North American continent who might have a vested interest in what happens or who might want lands.

Wolfhound, in that thread, had mentioned the possibility of Tecumseh (should he somehow stay alive in this timeline) possibly heading a Native American state or, possibly, a coalition. An article here even states the importance that a win would have meant and, perhaps more importantly, what either the survival of Tecumseh would have meant or, at least, someone equally capable taking up his role would be.

So, what might have happened with Native Americans had the British won? There were many different tribes with different values, but I'm pretty sure all of them would have liked some form of sovereignty in their areas or, at least, the right to hold and use the land as they saw fit.
