Question

Based on Voices of Freedom 51 and 52 contrast the views of Tecumseh and Felix Grundy over the land in the Midwest in the early nineteenth century. Was there any solution other than war? Explain your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

The war was the only solution to solve issue over the land in the early 19th century.                      

Explanation:              

Tecumseh organised a Native American confederacy to stop white settlement in the Northwest Territory. Tecumseh took side with the British during the War of 1812 because of settlers who moved to the Northwest Territories and created farms on Indian land. The hostile between the two groups began when pioneers ignored the treaties signed between Americans and Natives Americans.

Felix Grundy was a prominent figure among the so-called War Hawks, who demanded the war of 1812 against British. The reason for the war was America's desire to expand its territory and to stop the British restrictions on American trade.
