Answer: C - The Treaty of Greenville required Native Americans to cede their land to government, solidifying their status as residents on government property without citizenship rights. They could continue to live on it if they accepted governmental administration, in which case they would receive an annuity.

Native Americans not get citizenship and political rights until 1924.
