Basically it's what happened when pioneers went farther than what the centralized state could handle to manage. Towns were almost completely autonomous and many of them had few or no sherriffs. It had a lot of hardships, but it was pure freedom too

It was a shitload safer than modern day Chicago or any African country. The whole gun slinging thing is way over romanticised and over represented in fiction, but you were more likely to die of illness.

Random people going in the wilds where the US government wasn't established.
They would have these races and they would implant poles in the ground to mark the territory they will own.
THE SHIT WAS WILD.
The land in the west wasn't the best so they raised cattle.

It was a boring shit hole with gun fights being so rare they were sensationalized into movies.

Cause there was no gov reach and poor infrastructure from the east coast.

Not as dangerous as hollyweird has made it out to be. A whole lot dirtier, though.

RDR takes place during WW1. It's not really wild west.

They law was poorly enforced so gangs would try to steal people's shit.
They would go to isolated farms and fuck shit up.
