"Guns" were not an African good traded in exchange for European goods, since Africa did not have the factories need to assemble the guns, which were instead made in Europe.

The Homestead Act was enacted to help reduce poverty and reward persons who did fight on the side of the Confederacy during the Civil War while furthering western expansion.
It was open to any citizen or person wanting to become a citizen that did not fight against the government in the war.
For this act, gender did not matter as long as the person was head of a household or at least 21 years old.
They had to reside on the property for 5 years while improving it, such as clearing it, farming it and putting a proper home on it. They would receive the title at that time once they paid a registration fee. Another way for them to receive the title faster was if they lived on it for 6 months, with minor improvements and paid $1.25 per acre.
There was a lot more to it than that though. The individual had to sign agreements saying they never fought against the United States government, they couldn't owe debt, they had to be able to afford to clear, farm and build on the land for those five years. They then had to find people to sign acknowledgements that those improvements were actually done and the land wasn't abandoned.
June 25th, 1950 I believe! :P
The Aztecs, Incas, and Chinese, all had well developed civilizations, and they all used labor force or tributary system. All of them though has different systems and requirements in this department.
The Aztecs had lot of conquered people. They required tribute in the form of people for sacrifice. As the Aztecs has Gods that were very thirsty for human blood, in order to not sacrifice themselves, the Aztecs were taking people for the other tribes and sacrificed them.
The Inca system of labor force seem to have been the most just one. In this system, everyone, apart from the emperor, had to work for the good of everyone and for the good of themselves. Everyone lived in same homes, wore the same clothes, and worked the same types of jobs.
In China, the tribute system was based on forced labor of the people that were conquered. They had to work, produce certain goods, and give part of those goods or part of the profit from those goods to the governing bodies.
