Why was the Land Run of 1889 such a prominent event in Oklahoma history?

The Land Run of 1889 brought a large influx of settlers into the area, rapidly increasing its population and prompting the organization of Oklahoma Territory in 1890. That is why choice D, “The large number of people coming to the land led to the establishment of Oklahoma Territory,” is correct. The event was not about women voting or buffalo, and it did not represent an unprecedented improvement in federal relations with American Indians.
