Read the following quote by Tecumseh: “These lands are ours. No one has a right to remove us, because we were the first owners. The great Spirit has appointed this place for us, on which to light our fires, and here we will remain.

A.) The lands along the East coast where American settlers and Native Americans first met. B.) The lands that Americans considered to be within the boundaries of the Northwest territory. C.)
