Are you not supposed to be able to enter this territory? What is the history here? Just curious?

The Comanche did live in the areas outlined, but they had a relatively small population by the 1860s and had a minimal role in the war.

Their presence on the map is mostly there to prevent players from sending units into the wilderness (the Comanche border is also the approximate limit of settlement), where armies simply could not be supplied given the technology and infrastructure of the time (yes, most units would just run out of supply and perish, but rangers are exempt from that rule so something else was needed in this case).

The Western territories further north serve the same purpose.
