They also fought the once-mighty Spanish Empire to a standstill. They became so adept at mounted warfare that they were able to defeat their rivals, the Apaches, and exercise dominance over all the other southern plains tribes.
The Comanches were a warring tribe, and raiding settlements and other Indian tribes was as central to their culture as was the buffalo hunt. The Comanches quickly learned to wrangle and tame those horses they even learned to breed them, something that no other tribe learned to do. There they discovered wild horses, escapees from the Spanish herds. The Comanches migrated from the northern regions of modern-day eastern Wyoming into the southern plains region comprising much of modern-day Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas, and Texas.
