The correct answer is D, as what led to King Philip's War was the fact that colonist settlements on Wampanoag lands increased.

King Philip's War was a violent conflict that took place between 1675 and 1678 between the settlers who arrived to North America and the Indians who lived in what was formerly known as New England, now the United States.

The Wampanoag Indians welcomed and helped the Pilgrims, the first settlers, to survive a winter for which they were not prepared. Their coexistence was peaceful at first, but the continued arrival of European settlers and their expansion into the interior of the continent, led them to invade more and more Indian lands.

Philip was the Christian name of the head of the Wampanoag, Metacomet. The settlers referred to the Indian chiefs as king. Philip was captured by the English. He became ill and died while he was captive. His death provoked the wrath of the natives.

The English suffered against the Indian bands. They had informants and could theoretically ambush the Indians, but the ambush was not seen as a noble tactic. The terrain did not help either his defensive mentality. Their situation was worse if one takes into account the lack of military professionalism and defensive preparations.

The consequences of the war were dramatic for both sides, but especially for the indigenous populations: the Narragansett, the Wampanoag, the Podunk, the Nipmuck, the Mohicans and other villages were practically exterminated.
