The correct answers are the following.

Negotiate with the Five Tribes about accepting individual allotments: Cherokee Commission.

To abolish tribal governments: the Curtis Act.

To divide tribal lands into individual allotments: Dawes Act.

President Benjamin Harrison created the Cherokee Commission to legally get territories that belonged to the Cherokee nation to be occupied by non-Indians. Of course, the Cherokee people did not accept this decision.

The Dawes Act of February 1887 allowed the President of the United States to split Native American Tribe's land into individual allotments to be used by the Heads of many Indian families. The Curtis Act of 1898 amended the Dawes Act and split tribal lands that belonged to the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Seminole, and the Creek. They lost millions of acres.

What was an economic result of soldiers being drafted to fight in World War I?

jenyasd209 [6]

One economic result of the draft during WWI was a dramatic decrease in the unemployment rate. In the United States the unemployment rate stood at 7.9% in 1914 prior to the beginning of the draft and dropped six and a half points to 1.4% by 1918. This large shift in unemployment, along with the shift in demand caused by moving the economy to a war footing, showed that government activity could have a great impact on macroeconomic conditions.
