“i fought through the civil war and have seen men shot to pieces and slaughtered by thousands, but the cherokee removal was the cruelest work i ever knew.” –volunteer soldier
according to the soldier, what was the worst thing he experienced during his time in the army?
fighting in the civil war
leading american indians on the trail of tears
witnessing people being killed in battle

answer is b. "leading american indians on the trail of tears

the fact that could also be added to column b is that during world war ii, specifically between the years 1941 and 1945, japan expanded its territory towards the indonesian territory in what was known later as part of the "pacific war". in that time, japan could conquer the philipines, singapore,   borneo, central java, malang, cebu, sumatra and various other islands of the area, therefore expanding its territory for a brief period of time.

how is this a question? but yes, they were. if i recall correctly, it was very handy for native americans to use buffalo skin.
