How did the American Expansion effect Native Americans?

It impacted them negatively.

Explanation:

Hi there,

When the white settlers started to head westward, they encountered the Native American territories. These territories were traditional hunting grounds and sacred places for the native population.  Despite the significance of these lands to the native people, the Americans wanted to claim the lands for themselves under the idea of 'Manifest Destiny'.

The Native Americans were forced to leave their lands to relocation camps and were denied certain rights by the Americans. In some cases, battles were fought as a result of America's westward expansion. Regardless of their efforts, the natives lost their independence and a part of their culture as a result of the lost land. Ultimately, the Native Americans were negatively impacted by the expansion since they lost their identity, land, and way of life.

Hope this gives you an idea of the effects of America's westward expansion. Feel free to ask me questions. Cheers.
