Based on the quotation, the best explanation for why President Jackson supported the Indian Removal Act is that he believed it would separate the Indians from immediate contact with white settlements, free them from the power of the states, and possibly lead them to become civilized and Christian communities, thus delaying the process of decay that was lessening their numbers. Therefore, the option that best explains one reason Jackson supported the Indian Removal Act is "The Indians will prosper away from contact with white settlements."
9. The quotation below is from Metea, a Potawatomi leader.%0D%0A%0D%0A"We have now but a little left. We shall want it all for ourselves. We know not how long we shall live, and we wish to leave some land for our children to hunt upon. You are gradually taking away our hunting grounds. Your children are driving us before them. We are growing uneasy. What lands you have you may retain. But, we shall sell no more."
Based on the quotation, what was Metea's primary concern regarding American expansion?
Metea's primary concern regarding American expansion was that the Americans were taking away the Potawatomi's hunting grounds and leaving them with no land for their children to hunt upon. Their tribe needed the land to survive, but American expansion was eating away at it. Therefore, Metea wished to stop the selling of their lands.

Based on the quotation, the best explanation for an option Native Americans employed in the face of continued western expansion is resistance. The statement from Metea shows that Native American tribes were uneasy about westward expansion and that they wished to protect their land and future for their children. One way they attempted to do this was by resisting American expansion and refusing to sell any more of their lands.
10. Why did the U.S. military build frontier forts such as Fort Leavenworth? (2 points)%0D%0A%09to provide gainful employment for the many eastern settlers and immigrants who were moving westward%0D%0A%09to send a message to the Indian tribes that the U.S. owned and controlled the frontier%0D%0A%09to help squatters gain possession of lands in Indian territory%0D%0A%09to discourage fur trade and travel along the Missouri River
The reason why the U.S. military built frontier forts, such as Fort Leavenworth, was to send a message to the Indian tribes that the U.S. owned and controlled the frontier. These forts were seen as a symbol of American power and authority over the land and its inhabitants. They were often strategically placed along key trade routes and near Indian settlements to allow the military to keep a watchful eye on any potential threats or hostilities. Therefore, the option that best explains why the U.S. military built frontier forts is "to send a message to the Indian tribes that the U.S. owned and controlled the frontier."
11. The quotation below is part of the preamble to the U.S. Constitution.%0D%0A%0D%0A"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."%0D%0A%0D%0ABased on the quotation, which democratic principle made it difficult for Kansans to write a constitution?%0D%0A (2 points)%0D%0A%09civil rights%0D%0A%09capitalism%0D%0A%09checks and balances%0D%0A%09popular sovereignty
Based on the quotation, the democratic principle that made it difficult for Kansans to write a constitution was popular sovereignty. The preamble to the U.S. Constitution outlines that the Constitution was established in order to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. This implies that the principles of democracy were upheld in order to ensure that every citizen had equal rights and representation. In Kansas, the question of popular sovereignty was at the heart of the debate over whether or not to allow slavery in the state. The idea that the people should decide for themselves whether or not to allow slavery was a democratic principle, but it caused great division and strife in the state. Therefore, the option that best describes the democratic principle that made it difficult for Kansans to write a constitution is popular sovereignty.
