Final answer:

The Sequoyah Convention in 1905 proposed the creation of a Native American-governed state in eastern Oklahoma, but it was never approved by Congress, resulting in Oklahoma becoming a state instead.


Explanation:

Sequoyah was a proposed Native American-governed state in eastern Oklahoma in 1905, where American Indian leaders held the Sequoyah Statehood Convention. They intended to create a self-governing U.S. state that included lands central and eastern Oklahoma. Despite efforts to draft a Constitution with a Bill of Rights, the proposal was not approved by Congress, leading to Oklahoma becoming the 46th state in 1907.
