October 1790 CE
The Federal government sends General Harmar on expeditions against Native Americans and remaining British in the Northwest Territory in 1790.
After a few initial military successes, his force of fifteen hundred militiamen is defeated in October by a tribal coalition led by Little Turtle, in an engagement known as the "Harmar's defeat", "Battle of the Maumee", Battle of Kekionga", or "Battle of the Miami Towns".
Later, Harmar returns with a somewhat larger force and engages the coalition, but fights to a draw.
