A government led by a strong president and that challenged the other Branches.  

Further Explanation:

The Jacksonian Democracy was built on certain principles that aimed at strengthening the position of the President that would be backed by strong, loyal supporters within the U.S. Congress. President Jackson sought to build his presidency on the liberal democratic trends that were established by his predecessor, Thomas Jefferson while expanding the reach of various government organizations into numerous public domains. However, President Jackson did not give much importance to placing government control in the hands of educated government officials but placed primary emphasis on building a loyal party culture by supposedly awarding ‘government positions’ to his most loyal supporters. By this, he attempted to build a strong group of loyalists, that would help in getting all of his policies passed without any hindrance.

President Jackson believed that the executive branch should be granted more powers with respect to that of the Congress, and thereby sought to build his position by relaxing all criteria that would be required for getting voting rights. He also believed that the voting mechanisms should be used to democratically elect the judges of the Supreme Court, who were previously appointed. During his reign, many provisions of state constitutions were re-written to reflect the principles of his presidency. Perhaps the most famous aspect of his Presidency also notoriously known as the ‘spoils system’ was crucially used to systematically consolidate his position within the Presidency. He systematically replaced the Jeffersonian politicians and replaced them with his own supporters, and introduced the system of rotation in civil services, so as to prevent anyone officer from overtly gaining too much power.

Which best describes the reaction of the tribes in Oklahoma to the relocation of other tribes to the area?
liberstina [14]

As general terms, Indian Territory, the Indian Territories, or Indian country describe an evolving land area set aside by the United States Government for the relocation of Native Americans who held aboriginal title to their land. In general, the tribes ceded land they occupied in exchange for land grants in an area purchased by the United States federal government from Napoleonic France, the Louisiana Purchase. The concept of an Indian Territory was an outcome of the 18th- and 19th-century policy of Indian removal. After the Civil War, the policy of the government was one of assimilation.

Following Gideon v. Wainwright, what happens to people who have been accused of a crime and cannot afford to pay an attorney to
DaniilM [7]
They are assigned an attorney by the court.
Clarence Gideon had been charged with a burglary in Florida, and the judge said he could not appoint an attorney for Mr. Gideon because the crime of which he was accused was not a capital offense.  Gideon claimed he was entitled to be represented by counsel, but the judge did not agree.  Gideon was convicted and went to state prison.  From there, he appealed to the US Supreme Court in a suit against the Secretary of the Florida Department of Corrections.  (By the time the case came before the Supreme Court, that was Louie L. Wainwright, thus "Gideon v. Wainwright.")  
The Supreme Court agreed with Mr. Gideon's claim, and since then, all persons, whether in state or federal court, are entitled to the right to counsel and an attorney is appointed if they cannot afford to hire their own.
