Tecumseh wanted to unify all Native Americans and force the United States to give all Indian Tribes the land they deserved. So the correct option is D.

Explanation:

Tecumseh, born in 1768 in Ohio, was a Native American chief of the Shawnee tribe. It was during the early 1800s that he attempted to organise a confederation of tribes to resist the Americans or the white settlement who were capturing their lands. He worked with his brother Tenskwatawa who was also known as 'The Prophet,' to unite American Indian tribes in the Northwest Territory to defend against the Americans. By unifying all the tribes Tecumseh wanted to force the white settlers to deal with all of them. Separately, the individual tribes didn't have the power to face them. As a step to actualising this, he and his followers joined the British to fight the United States during the War of 1812.
