To determine which option is an example of how Reconstruction in the South differed from Reconstruction in Indian Territory, we need to analyze each option and compare them.
Option 1 states that freedmen were granted citizenship, land, and rights in Indian Territory, while in the South, many people sought ways to limit the freedom and rights of freedmen. This suggests that Reconstruction in Indian Territory was more favorable towards the rights and freedoms of freedmen compared to the South, where there were attempts to restrict these rights.
Option 2 suggests that freedmen were granted land and rights in the South after the war, while in Indian Territory they remained as slaves. This implies that in terms of granting land and rights to freedmen, Reconstruction in the South was more progressive than in Indian Territory where they were still kept as slaves.
Option 3 states that people ages 18 and older could own land in the South if they had the money to pay for it, whereas in Indian Territory, people ages 21 and older could obtain land without needing money. This highlights a difference in land ownership requirements between the two regions during Reconstruction.
Option 4 states that Indian Territory closed lands to all people to allow the Five Tribes enough space for building villages and towns, whereas in the South, lands were opened up only to white and black settlers. This indicates a difference in land policies, with Indian Territory prioritizing the needs of the Five Tribes and the South allowing both white and black settlers access to land.
From these options, it can be inferred that the correct example of how Reconstruction in the South differed from Reconstruction in Indian Territory is Option 1: Freedmen were granted citizenship, land, and rights in Indian Territory, while in the South, many people looked for ways to limit freedom and rights of freedmen.
