Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is:

A) some tribes negotiated agreement about the reservation and the relocation process

Explanation:

Tens of thousands of Native Americans were relocated to Indian Territory (to an area now part of Oklahoma) throughout the 1830s. Some tribes left without conflict, but many were ultimately driven by force from their ancestral land.

An example of that was the Treaty of Holston, that was signed in 1791 in which the Cherokees agreed to give up all land outside of their established borders.
