The 1876 Battle of Little Bighorn

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Battle of Little Bighorn was a short-lived Indian victory, as the Sioux and Cheyenne forces were able to defeat the Seventh Cavalry led by General George Custer. However, this victory was not sustained and was followed by increased military action against Native American tribes in the Dakotas. The battle took place in Montana, not Wyoming. The Sioux were united under Sitting Bull, but Geronimo was not involved in this particular battle.
