The correct answer is D) the settlement of unpopulated areas.

<em>The Homestead Act of 1862 was passed to encourage the settlement of unpopulated areas. </em>

This act was signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln on May 20, 1862. The Act supported Western migration to unpopulated territories. The government wanted people to settle in those territories and it provided 160 acres of public land if people paid a filing fee. Another requisite was that the settlers stay in the western lands for five continuous years in order to get their ownership of the land. So yes, The Homestead Act of 1862 was passed to encourage the settlement of unpopulated areas.

That Montgomery Bus Boycott was based on the principle of blank
horsena [70]
The Montgomery Bus Boycott was an event for civil rights. Buses used to be segregated. The whites sat in front and the blacks in the back. Rosa Parks, a colored person, was sitting in the back and refused to move to the back because she was tired. She was forcefully moved from her seat and arrested. Black people all over the South started to sit in the front and refused to move after this incident. They eventually were forcefully moved off the bus and a few were arrested.
