of Horseshoe Bend, March 1814. "The Second Anglo-American War, more commonly known as the War of 1812, (1812-1815), was fought throughout North America between Great Britain and her Native American Indian allies and the United States of America and its Native American allies. Even though the War of 1812 was predominantly a war between Great Britain and the United States in the context of the greater Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815), it was also one of the first great "Indian Wars" of post-Revolutionary American history. Through a military allegiance with the great Shawnee chief Tecumseh (b.1768-1813) a large struggle between the native peoples of North America (Great Britain's 1812 Allies) and the young American inhabitants (settlers and military men) who now controlled the territorial destiny of the expanding United States of America began in 1811. By the conclusion of the War of 1812 with the Treaty of Ghent in 1814-1815, US army and state militias had engaged Native American warriors from Canada to Ohio, Tennessee, and into the Mississippi territory of what became the states of Alabama & Georgia. One of the most significant campaigns of this period to American military history today was the Creek War or Red Stick War fought between the Red Stick Creeks and the United States and its Creek (Muscogee), Cherokee, and Choctaw allies primarily in what is today the US state of Alabama from February 1813 to August 1814
