The correct response is:
**The French were more interested in trade than in acquiring Native American land.**
In early Indiana, the French established a system of trade with Native American tribes rather than focusing on colonization or land acquisition. They engaged in fur trading and formed alliances, which often led to mutual benefits for both the French and the Native American communities.
