The correct answer is "they received solemn promises from the government that they would be left alone and provided with supplies on the remaining land."
In post-Civil War America, Indians surrendered their lands only when they received solemn promises from the government that they would be left alone and provided with supplies on the remaining land.
And as we know, the situation became complicated and although they were sent to the Indian territory, modern-day Oklahoma- Native American Indian tribes felt betrayed because they always claimed that those original lands were theirs and belonged to their ancestors. And they were right. Native Indians were already in North America many years before the arrival of the white English colonists that founded the colonies in 1607.
By the consent of the people over whom they rule.
The "social contract" refers to an implicit agreement between a government and the citizens of the society overseen by that government. Philosophers of the Enlightenment era were famous for arguing the idea of a "social contract." According to this view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed. This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler. One of the most influential of the social contract theorists was John Locke, who repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his <em>First Treatise on Civil Government.</em> In his <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>, Locke then argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting and enhancing their own life, liberty, and property.
