The correct answer is B) were forced to move westward.
During the 19th century, the expansion of the United States and the concept of Manifest Destiny led to the forced removal of many Native American tribes from their ancestral lands, particularly through policies such as the Indian Removal Act of 1830. This often resulted in their relocation to areas west of the Mississippi River.
