The impact of the government's "termination policy" on Native/Indigenous populations primarily included significant challenges in adjusting to life outside of reservations. This policy aimed to assimilate Native Americans into mainstream American society by terminating their status as sovereign nations and abolishing federal recognition of tribes, which often led to the loss of land and resources.

Therefore, the most accurate response is:
