The correct answer is A) Grant was given time to be able to set up a defensive position in this location.

At the Hornet's Nest, Grant informed the commanders that they were to hold that position for as long as possible. It was so important that they were able to do this because Grant was given time to be able to set up a defensive position in this location.

We are referring to the Shiloh battle that started on April 6, 1862, and ended one day after. Hornet's Nest was the nickname of the place of the battle in southwestern Tennesse. More specifically, in Pittsburg Landing in Hardin County, Tennesse. Union's General Ulysses S. Grant defeated Confederate troops led by Albert Sydney Johnston.

Why did the Cherokee Nation believe it could win its case in the United States Supreme Court
strojnjashka [21]
They wanted to exploit a loophole in american politics. Before them, the other Native people who ceded their lands had first been recognized as nations and then when the territory became their legally, they would give it away in deals with the American government. The Cherokee thus declared themselves to be a sovereign nation and not to give the land, which is why they took the case to the supreme court in order to be protected.
