Question 3 • OK-Oklahoma History

Which of the following statements describes one major difference between Oklahoma Territory and Indian Territory?

Answer
A
Indian Territory contained a mix of settlers, freedmen, and American Indians.
B
Indian Territory had no formal centralized government for the region.
C
Indian Territory was located outside the boundaries of modern Oklahoma.
D
Indian Territory had been formally recognized by the US government.

Explanation

Oklahoma Territory had an organized territorial government established by the U.S. government. Indian Territory, by contrast, consisted of lands governed by separate Native American nations and did not have one formal centralized government for the whole region. That difference makes “Indian Territory had no formal centralized government for the region” the correct statement.
