Read the excerpt from "american indian civil rights.”
one of the most sweeping blows to the american indian community occurred in 1830 when president andrew jackson signed the indian removal act. as a result, the government negotiated with tribes to move them to land west of the mississippi river. the government then acquired their previously inhabited land. some tribes reluctantly went along with the act. however, many did not want to abandon their homelands.
in this excerpt, the setting
creates a mood.
develops a character.
fuels the external conflict.
creates an internal conflict.

The right answer is "fuels the external conflict. "

Explanation: The text clearly does not create a mood or develop a character. Nor does it create an internal conflict because an inner conflict is one that has a kind of inner quarrel that the characters interlock between their innermost reasons and emotions and trigger bad feelings.

Thus, the text feeds external conflict. An external conflict occurs when a character must overcome a challenge with another character, the forces of nature, technology or society. In this case the external conflict is presented when the Indians were removed from their lands, against their will, by the non-indigenous society, showing of this conflict a challenge between characters and society.
