Veena writes an essay about native americans in the 1800s: native americans and u. s. settlers struggled for land during the early 1800s. u. s. citizens slowly pushed native americans off their traditional lands. they fought wars, such as the seminole war, for control of louisiana. native americans lost these struggles and were pushed farther and farther west. which statement corrects a mistake in veena's essay? native americans usually gave up their lands voluntarily. the seminole war was fought over control of florida. most native americans moved south, rather than west. u. s. citizens had little interest in native american lands.

The correct answer is “The Seminole War was fought over control of Florida.”

The Seminole wars also were known as the Florida Wars were a series of three conflicts between Seminole - native American tribe - and the US army.

The First Seminole War started because some American Settlers were migrating south into the Seminole territory. With the war, the US military pushed the Seminoles farther south into Florida.

The Second Seminole War started because of the Treaty of Payne’s Landing that required Indians to give up their Florida lands in three years and move west. The US Army arrived in 1835 to enforce the treaty and it started the war.

The Third Seminole War started when conflicts over land arose between whites and some Seminoles that remained in Florida. The Seminole population was reduced to 200 when the war was over.
