Explanation:

On August 19, 1848, the New York Herald newspaper published a story that led many people to move to California: the discovery of gold on the Sacramento River. In the months that followed, thousands of people from all over the world populated the arid western United States in the hope of becoming rich. There were few who got rich with the gold rush, however many situations started a conflict with native tribes.

Because the gold rush passed Indian territories, the Indians did not want to give up their lands for the search for gold to be carried out, this led to many conflicts between Indians and settlers, especially when white settlers pressured the government to take over Indian land.
