The correct answer is D) The government believed this would be enough time for the tribal members to become self-reliant and adapt to the farming lifestyle.

<em>The federal government chose to give each tribal member a 25-year deed to the reservation land because the government believed this would be enough time for the tribal members to become self-reliant and adapt to the farming lifestyle.</em>

We are referring to the Allotment Act of 1887. The Congress passed this act also called the Dawes Act, in an attempt to give the Native American Tribes the opportunity to learn how to farm the land and adapt to new customs to live as an Americans. Each family would receive 160 acres of tribal land. The government would hold in trust the title of the land for 25 years. After that time, the land would be the property of the Indians. Some tribes accepted others opposed, as was the case of the Seminole, the Cherokee, and the Choctaw.

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!<br> How did the invention of the telegraph affect the civil war?
inna [77]

Answer:The telegraph was invented by Samuel Morse in 1844, and telegraph wires soon sprang up all along the East Coast. During the war, 15,000 miles of telegraph cable was laid purely for military purposes. Mobile telegraph wagons reported and received communications from just behind the frontline. President Lincoln would regularly visit the Telegraph Office to get the latest news. The telegraph also enabled news sources to report on the war in a timely fashion, leading to an entirely new headache for the government: how to handle the media.
