The correct answer is A) buy the territory from the American Indians.

In the 1870s, gold was discovered in the Blacks Hills. The federal government first tried to buy the territory from the American Indians.

It was the year 1874 when the General Custer expedition found gold in the Black Hills territory in Dakota. In that time, this territory belonged to the Sioux Indians, a Native American tribe. The Gold Rush of Black Hills, Dakota was at its peak between 1876 and 1877, and the government tried at first to buy the land. But the Sioux believed that the land belonged to them because it was inherited by their ancestors.

by 1890, the united states had by far the world's most productive economy. american industry produced twice as much as its closest competitor--britain. but the united states was not a great military or diplomatic power. its army numbered less than 30,000 troops, and its navy had only about 10,000 seamen. britain's army was five times the size of its american counterpart, and its navy was ten times bigger. the united states' military was small because the country was situated between two large oceans and was surrounded by weak or friendly nations. it faced no serious military threats and had little interest in asserting military power overseas.
