The Homestead Act offered land in the West to any citizen Willing to develop it. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option. The Homestead Act was passed in the year 1862 and it was during the time of the Civil War. It actually granted 160 acres of land to those people that did not take arms against the government.
