Question

Why do you think it the United States wanted to

defeat Native American resistance in the West?
Think about what the United States (and its
settlers) wanted to do out West.
Give me a sentence, please! :)

Answer 1

The settlers were trying to settle and make a living in a new place for their family and friends, and if that required 'defeating' some people to take what they wanted, that was what they were willing to do for the sake of their future. The safety of their homes and family was a concern as well especially since they were in unknown land with people that they have never seen before.
