Tems11 [23]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ Relocate \ American \ Indians \ and \ to \ provide \ land \ for \ white \ settlers}}$

Explanation:

In the 1800s, lots of change was occurring in the United States.

The rise of factories and industrialization expanded the textile industry. It needed more cotton.
The invention of the cotton gin helped meet the demand for cotton. It made production faster and cheaper.
The demand for cotton continued to increase, so plantation owners continued to expand their land and grow more.

However, they couldn't expand forever without touching Native American land. So, the Indian Removal Act was passed in 1830. It <u>forced</u> the Natives off their land and into reservations west of the Mississippi River. Their sacred lands became plantations.

Based on this information, the best answer choice is <u>A. Relocate American Indians and to provided land for white settlers</u>
