____________________________________________________________

Explanation:

Federal Indian policy builds the connection between the United States Government and the Indian Societies inside its boundaries. The Constitution provides the central government primitive loyalty for administering with tribes. The Indian Contribution Act of 1871 executed all Native Americans departments of the central authority and revoked all agreements with them. By stating that the administration would no longer sign agreements with Indian tribes, Congress efficiently dispatched the lingering trails of the Native Americans' national freedom.

Answer 2

The correct answer is B) Encouraging assimilation.

During the middle to late part of the 19th century, the US government developed a series of Indian Boarding Schools. This resulted in thousands of Native Ameriacns from all different tribes to be sent to a school to learn more about American culture, language, and ideas. The goal of the Indian Boarding School program was to assimilate these individuals into American society.
