The assimilation of Native Americans was a goal of the federal government.
During the late 1800's, the federal government had the goal of assimilating Native Americans into mainstream America. In this case, the government wanted Native Americans to act more like white farmers (which made up a majority of America). This resulted in several different laws and policies that would help enforce this idea. This includes the Dawes Act and the creation of Indian Boarding Schools.
Indian Boarding Schools were schools were Native American kids were sent to learn more about the English language, American culture, etc. Unfortunately, this system had many negative effects as it resulted in the destruction of some Native American cultures and languages.

conquistadors took place, the region of Texas has been part of multiple
countries, such as Spain, France, Mexico, the Republic of Texas and the United
States of America. By 1836, the Texas Revolution comes to an end and the newly
formed Texas Republic gains its independence from Mexico. In 1845, the U.S.
Congress passes a bill authorizing the annexation of the Republic of Texas. In
October, the same year, the people of Texas adopt a new constitution through
public vote and on December 29, Texas becomes a legal part of the United States,
with the mention that the United States agrees to pay off its debts. The
correct answer is D, Mexico.</span>
