Final answer:

The Dawes Act of 1887 aimed to assimilate Native Americans into white society by dividing reservation lands into individual allotments.


Explanation:

The Dawes Act, also known as the Dawes Severalty Act, passed in 1887, aimed to assimilate Native Americans into white society. The law divided reservation lands into individual allotments, forcing Native Americans onto individual plots and granting them U.S. citizenship if they accepted the allotments. This act led to the loss of tribal land control and the dissolution of tribal governments, ultimately facilitating the acquisition of Indian lands by the U.S. government.
