Question 1 • FL-2100315-United States History CR

Based on what you know, predict what will happen when the US government tries to take more land from American Indians.

Answer
A
Americans and American Indians will live together peacefully.
B
Conflict will erupt between the government and American Indians.
C
American settlers will respect American Indian lands.
D
The government will honor treaties made with American Indians.

Explanation

When the U.S. government tries to take more American Indian land, it is likely to violate or challenge Indigenous communities’ rights and claims to that land. Historically, forced land seizures and broken treaties led to resistance and violence, so conflict is the most likely outcome. The correct choice is “Conflict will erupt between the government and American Indians.”
