Why were whites in Indian Territory pressing for statehood? to gain additional land
to acquire better jobs
to continue removing Native Americans
to increase their rights and representation

either b) they were often feared and despised by other native cultures. or

c) their obsession allowed them to coexist with many other native cultures because of their peaceful nature.

c would be the correct !

hope this !
