In "Killers of the Flower Moon" they state... "the Osage were not one of the FIVE Civilized tribes." Like being considered CIVILIZED changed anything about how they were treated. The Cherokee sure. What other culture in history had ONE MAN create the written version of their language? Chief Sequoia? Eh! No use retelling that fake history. https://www.native-languages.org/georgia.htm There are NO RECOGNIZED TRIBES in Georgia now. SO, why talk about that history?

Based on David Grann's bestselling nonfiction book, Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI, the upcoming Western crime epic centers on a series of murders in 1920s Oklahoma, after oil is discovered on tribal land in the Osage Nation. The murders became known as the "Reign of Terror," during which wealthy Osage Nation members were murdered for their oil money by the "white interlopers, who manipulated, extorted, and stole as much Osage money as they could before resorting to murder."

FIVE CIVILIZED TRIBES.​

The term "Five Civilized Tribes" came into use during the mid-nineteenth century to refer to the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole nations. Although these Indian tribes had various cultural, political, and economic connections before removal in the 1820s and 1830s, the phrase was most widely used in Indian Territory and Oklahoma.
