What events led to the failure of tecumseh’s confederation

History

Portrait of the Shawnee military and political leader Tecumseh, ca. 1800-1813. He worked with his brother Tenskwatawa, known as 'The Prophet,' to unite American Indian tribes in the Northwest Territory to defend themselves against white settlers.

During the early 1800s, Tecumseh, a leader of the Shawnee, attempted to unite American Indian tribes west of the Appalachian Mountains into a confederation. Tecumseh believed that the land did not belong to a single tribe. In reality, no one owned the land except for the Master of Life, the Shawnees' principal god. Tecumseh believed that the only way that American Indians could transfer land to the Americans was if every tribe agreed to it. Tecumseh wanted to force the Americans to deal with all of the tribes in unison. Separately, the individual tribes did not have much power. Together, Tecumseh hoped, they would be a major deterrent to white expansion.

Tecumseh explained his views in a letter to William Henry Harrison in 1810:

. . .the only way to stop this evil [white settlement of the Indians' land], is for all the red men to unite in claiming a common and equal right in the land as it was at first, and should be now - for it never was divided, but belongs to all. . . .Sell a country! Why not sell the air, the clouds and the great sea, as well as the earth? Did not the Great Spirit [Master of Life] make them all for the use of his children

oee [108]

Answer:

In China, food shortages, corruption in government, and high rates of opium addiction led to  the Taiping Rebellion.

Explanation:

The Taiping Rebellion was a major uprising that took place in the south, then the center of China, between 1851 and 1864; this revolt, which the Qing dynasty took nearly fifteen years to defeat, takes its name from the kingdom that the rebels had founded in southern China and central China, Taiping Tian Guo, or "Heavenly Kingdom of the Great Peace".

The founder of the movement, Hong Xiuquan (1814-1864), who had read religious pamphlets given by missionaries, called himself the younger brother of Jesus Christ. He promulgated an agrarian reform after the capture of Nanjing in 1853, in which he instituted deep social reforms such as the abandonment of polygamy; gender equality, however accompanied by a strict separation between men and women; the abandonment of the old custom of bandaging women's feet; the prohibition of arranged marriages, gambling, slavery, torture, and prostitution; private land ownership was abolished; food, clothing and other everyday consumer goods were pooled in public warehouses, and distributed to the population as necessary by military leaders; opium, tobacco and alcohol were also then banned.

Between 30 and 50 million people are estimated to have died as a direct result of the conflict. By the way, between 1850 and 1873, China's population was reduced by more than 60 million as a result of rebellions, wars, drought and famine.
