Started typing up an answer but don't feel like sourcing it and someone better informed is going to give a better answer eventually, but here's a start...

Whereas the Spanish significantly intermixed with the indigenous populations and created a mestizo (mixed) racial group, the US colonists maintained separation from the native population. In both cases, smallpox/disease reduced the native population by about 90% [relevance to question?]. The long running goal of the decision makers in America was to either force the natives to assimilate or be killed; the reservation was everyone's last choice.

Someone smarter, your turn
