Explanation

Red Cloud’s War took place from 1866 to 1868, and the Treaty of Fort Laramie was signed in 1868, after the fighting. The Black Hills Gold Rush began in the 1870s, followed by the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876. So the correct order is Red Cloud’s War, the treaty, the gold rush, and Little Bighorn.
