Answer 2

Answer:

Dawes Act: The government would not allow tribes to hold property communally.

Curtis Act: The government dissolved tribal governments.

Springer Amendment: Tribes lost their claim to the Unassigned Lands.

Explanation:

The Dawes Act was passed in 1887. This law considered Native Americans as individuals, rather than members of tribes. Because of this, the government did not allow the tribes to hold property communally. The Curtis Act was an amendment to the Dawes Act. It dissolved tribal governments and led to the break-up of communal lands. Finally, the Springer Amendment led to the placing of Unassigned Lands of Indian Territory within the federal public domain.
