The allotment and assimilation period refers to a significant phase in U.S. history during the late 19th and early 20th centuries when federal policies aimed to assimilate Native Americans into mainstream American society and break up tribal landholdings. This period was marked by the allotment of tribal lands into individual parcels, reducing the overall land held by Native American tribes, and pushing for cultural assimilation through education and legal measures.
