B) Native Americans suffered hardships when Europeans first arrived in North America, but relations improved during the 1800s.

C) The desire for land led colonists, and then the United States government and people, to push Indians off their land and destroy their way of life.

D) Native Americans opposed European colonization at first, but in the 1800s chose to assimilate into white American culture.


Sagot :


The answer is actually C). There were very few Native American tribes that chose to assimilate into white American culture. Instead, as the colonies spread throughout the  1700s and 1800s, settling farther  and farther westward, the Indians were forced out of their homes, on to reserves, and often into religious and cultural practices outside of Native American culture. You should probably look at the Trail of Tears for more details.
