This newspaper contains a bold front page headline: "Georgia and the Creek Indians" with a full column of text reporting on the BEGINNING of the CREEK INDIAN WAR in the Southeastern US. BEST front page display headline newspaper I have seen on the beginning of the Creek Indian War !! The Creek War (1813–1814), also known as the Red Stick War and the Creek Civil War , began as a civil war within the Creek (Muscogee) nation. United States forces became involved by attacking a Creek party in present-day southern Alabama at the Battle of Burnt Corn . The war ended after Andrew Jackson in command of a force of combined state militias, Lower Creek and Cherokee defeated the Red Sticks at Horseshoe Bend. This led to the Treaty of Fort Jackson (August 1814) where the general insisted on the Creek ceding more than 20 million acres of land from southern Georgia and central Alabama. These lands were taken from the allied Lower Creek as well as the defeated Upper Creek. Since tribal tensions tended to be exacerbated when the War of 1812 broke out between the United States and Great Britain and because prominent figures such as Andrew Jackson participated in both, historians sometimes include this regional conflict as part of that wider war.
