Answer:
The primary methods that the U.S. government, as well as individual reformers, used to deal with the perceived Indian threat to westward settlement were:
-The Indian removal act 1830.
- The treaties were signed for the indians to be asigned to reservations, and to be relocated. The treaties were not respected, the white americans would traspass their sacred lands.
- They would impose american cultural rituals and believes.
Explanation:
The Americans rejected the native americans and wanted to remove all of their cultural beliefs and rituals. They fear westward expantion so they took all the possible methods to avoid this, from trying to take them out of their lands, to forcing them to change their identity.
Most immigrants came from Ireland due to the potato famine.
Explanation:
One of the most devastating things to happen to Ireland was the potato famine where millions of people died of starvation in a famine tat was largely avoidable but the British did not do anything about it.
A huge stretch of the population thus decided to move away from the nation to settle for better prospects and the majority chose US.
The US thus became swarmed with migrants from Ireland on its shore that wanted sanctuary.
So that everyone in the population have a equal chance in particpating?
I don't think it would have a direct bearing on the outcome.....
