Tecumseh's death
One reason Tecumseh wanted to form a confederation was to stop the advancement of white settlement. To arrive at this answer, we can analyze the options given.
The first option, "to end fur trading amongst settlers," does not align with Tecumseh's goals as he did not aim to end fur trading but rather to protect Native American lands and interests.
The second option, "to stop the advancement of white settlement," aligns with Tecumseh's objectives. Tecumseh and his brother Tenskwatawa, also known as The Prophet, formed a confederation of Native American tribes to resist the encroachment of white settlers onto their lands.
The third option, "to take over the Canadian territory," is not accurate. Tecumseh sought to unite Native American tribes to defend their homeland, not to conquer Canadian territory.
The fourth option, "to have the ability to fight the War Hawks," is partially true. Tecumseh hoped that a united Native American confederation would be able to resist the influence and expansionist desires of Western War Hawks in the United States.
Based on these explanations, the correct answer is "to stop the advancement of white settlement."
