it;s right

complex changes in the international economic system.

But van Buren was no Jackson, and he couldn’t maintain the credibility in the midst of the Panic of 1837. The financial panic was caused byproblems in the international systems of banking and trade and was beyond American control. Nevertheless, the Whig used the financial crisis to make political hay.

To determine the correct answer, let's break down each option and see which one aligns with the cause of the Panic of 1837.

A. the policies of Martin Van Buren's administration: The policies of Martin Van Buren's administration were implemented after the Panic of 1837 occurred, so it is not the direct cause.

B. the policies of John Quincy Adams: John Quincy Adams was the president before Martin Van Buren, and his policies were not influential during the Panic of 1837.

C. complex changes in the international economic system: This option refers to the idea that the Panic of 1837 resulted from intricate changes in the global economy. It is a valid explanation. Large-scale economic changes, such as the speculative bubble in land and the collapse of the cotton market, heavily impacted the international economic system and contributed to the panic.

D. the cost associated with Indian removal: Although the Indian Removal Act of 1830 and the subsequent forced removal of Native American tribes were significant events in American history, they were not the primary factors leading to the Panic of 1837.

Based on this analysis, the correct answer is C. The Panic of 1837 resulted, in large measure, from complex changes in the international economic system.
