The Battle of Little Bighorn, also known as Custer's Last Stand, occurred on June 25, 1876, near the Little Bighorn River in Montana. It was a significant conflict between the combined forces of the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes against the 7th Cavalry Regiment of the US Army led by Lieutenant Colonel George Custer. The battle was part of the Great Sioux War of 1876, driven by US expansion and the discovery of gold in the Black Hills. Native forces, led by Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, decisively defeated Custer's troops. The battle marked a major victory for Native Americans but led to increased military actions by the US government.
