Answer:

The main cause of the Indian Wars of this period was the notion of Manifest Destiny. For decades, Americans from the east were pushing west in an effort to gain control of more land and resources. Many felt that it was their God-given right to control the continent from sea to sea. This was accelerated by the expansion of the railroad during the latter half of the nineteenth century. Sometimes valuable resources such as gold and other precious metals were discovered on native land. This encouraged more settlers and led to inevitable conflict. Land was also desired for the purposes of ranching and farming.

Answer:

During the late 1800s, Americans and the natives typically experienced tensions with regard to territory, resources, and competition among the groups. With that being said, the main cause of the Indian Wars of this period was the notion of Manifest Destiny. For decades, Americans from the east were pushing west in an effort to gain control of more land and resources. Many felt that it was their God-given right to control the continent from sea to sea. This was accelerated by the expansion of the railroad during the latter half of the nineteenth century. Sometimes valuable resources such as gold and other precious metals were discovered on native land. This encouraged more settlers and led to inevitable conflict. Land was also desired for the purposes of ranching and farming. As a result of this destructive mindset, much of Native American land was taken away not only by settlers, but by the United States federal government. Americans increasingly began to see the West as land of the United States' and, consequently, treated it as such. Eventually, natives were forced to neglect their traditional nomadic lifestyle and seldom assimilate into American culture and society.

irinina [24]

Answer:

The main goal has always been

d. reunite the country.

Explanation:

In America, the issue of slavery was such a strong topic that most american president tried to overlook abolishing it or looking into it or using the topic to campaign during election time. When Lincoln became president, he promised to abolish slavery which didn't go down well with those living in the Southern States in America.

This issue caused them to try to form and declare their own country. America being a single indivisible country tried everything possible to prevent such. <em>When it didn't work, the Northern States had no other option than to go to war with the Southern States inorder to preserve their sovereignty as a single country.</em>
