Question 21 • US History

Which best describes how Indigenous power was affected by the War of 1812?

Answer
A
It was untouched.
B
It was nearly destroyed.
C
It was reinforced.
D
It was slightly weakened.

Explanation

The War of 1812 ended with the defeat of Indigenous allies who had resisted U.S. expansion, including forces led by Tecumseh. With British support reduced and U.S. settlement continuing westward, Indigenous nations had less ability to defend their lands and political independence. Thus, Indigenous power was nearly destroyed, rather than untouched or reinforced.
