The short answer is that the native americans were the biggest losers of the Revolution. The Iroquois Confederation who resided in upstate New York were decimated after the Revolutionary war by the American Troops.

Member tribes of the Iroquois Confederation fought on both sides of the Revolution and therefore no matter who won the conflict it guaranteed as a political unit that the Confederation would cease to exist.

Tribes of the Iroquois Confederation began a civil war amongst themselves and subsequently The American forces after the Revolution ended turned their attention towards the Iroquois Confederation and burned their villages forcing them to flee, because several member tribes joined the British during the Revolution.
