The correct answer is B. To move eastern Indian tribes to lands west of the Mississippi

Explanation:

The Indian Removal was a law signed by the Congress of the U.S. on May 28 of 1830, in this act the main purpose was to remove some Indian tribes from their ancestral territory at the east of Mississippi to west territory, more specifically to nowadays Oklahoma territory. This law was quite controversial, considering some tribes did not agree with the relocation, the act was discriminating Native tribes and the relocation had important negative consequences on the tribes, including the death of many of them during the relocation and lost of the tribes' ancestral lands. Considering this, it can be concluded the main reason for the Removal Act in 1830 was "to move eastern Indian tribes to lands west of the Mississippi".

That could definitely be argued! The WWI was fought in Europe, so many European countries were left in pieces at its end. So they were definitely in need of outside support. One may also look at it from another point of view. The US refused to join the League of Nations, which shows that the country was not necessarily as involved in world affairs as it could have been.

Why did an illegal slave trade begin after the official african slave trade ended in 1808?
ankoles [38]
I would say A. It would be difficult to find workers for jobs that people didn't desire. Like how minorities pick produce nowadays and you don't hear of white people picking produce.

How did TWO of the following contribute to the reemergence of a two-party system in the period 1820-1840? Major political person
Scilla [17]
It was the issue of state's rights that most directly contributed to the advent of a two party system in the 19th century, with the Democrats generally in favor of Southern state's rights and the Whigs in favor or more national unity. This of course was related to economic issues in the sense that the Democrats were defending slavery.
