Solution
The correct option is E The Trail of Tears
The Trail of Tears was the forced trek of the southeastern Indians, most
famously the Cherokee, to the Indian Territory (Oklahoma) west of the
Mississippi River. King Phillip's War (A) was the attack of the
Wampanoags and Narragansett Indians on Massachusetts and Rhode Island
settlements, in 1675 and 1676. The Pequot War (B) was the massacre of
the Pequot Indians after they attacked the Massachusetts colonists in
1637. The buffalo (C) were slaughtered by the whites as the railroads
were built in the Great Plains in the 1870s, and Tecumseh (D) was the
visionary Indian leader who united the Old Northwest tribes behind the
Shawnee to eliminate whites once and for all. He was defeated by William
Henry Harrison at Tippecanoe in 1811 and then at the Battle of the
Thames in 1813 during the War of 1812.
