Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most of the Five Civilized Tribes, including the Cherokee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw, supported the Confederacy during the Civil War. This was due in part to their reliance on slave labor and a belief that the Confederacy would support their right to own slaves. Additionally, many tribal leaders had close relationships with southern politicians and were opposed to the Union's policies towards Native American lands.
