<em>Around 2,200 miles.</em>

Explanation:

The Indian Removal Act was passed in 1830, this meant that many Native Americans had to move from their tribal lands to what is now present-day Oklahoma. If they did not move, they would have to be forcefully removed by the United States military and unfortunately, that was the case for many.

A lot of the Natives realized they did not stand a chance against the United States government, so they left by themselves and tried to avoid confrontation. Many of the Cherokee Natives did not want to move and even tried begging to stay in their homeland. The United States government did not budge and wanted to still move them to Oklahoma in order to expand.

Eventually, the Cherokee Natives were forced out and had to walk 2,200 miles to what is now Oklahoma, this walk is known as the Trail of Tears. The Native Americans were walked at gunpoint and many of them ended up dying from disease, weather conditions, dehydration, and other factors.

Which of the following best compares the economies of japan north korea china and india

Kamila [148]

Answer:

a. south korea has more private business than india and china

Explanation:

South Korea is an advanced, market-oriented economy, with a GDP Per capita of over 30,000 dollars, much higher than India's or China's.

Even if the South Korea economy has very strong conglomerates like Samsung and Hyundai (they are called chaebol in South Korea), medium and small private businesses are the backbone of the country, like in any other advanced, market-oriented economy.

China does not have as many private businesses (proportionally) because it is not as populated, and because the government controls a larger part of the economy. In India, the economy is a lot poorer, and this makes it harder for private businesses to succeed.
