===Trading posts=== One of the most defining aspects of the acts was the establishment of a series of "[[factory (trading post)|factories]]" which were officially licensed [[trading post]]s where Native Americans were to sell their merchandise (particularly [[fur trade|furs]]). The factories, which officially were set up to protect the tribes from unscrupulous private traders, were to be used as leverage to cause the tribes to cede substantial territory in exchange for access to the "factory" as happened with the [[Treaty of Fort Clark]] in which the [[Osage Nation]] exchanged most of [[Missouri]] in order to access [[Fort Osage|Fort Clark]].
