The statement that is most accurate of those listed is Option D. Regardless of which side they chose, Native Americans lost land during the war.

Explanation:

Before the American Revolution, the expansion of the 13 colonies westward was controlled to some extent by the British Crown. There were laws in place meant to protect Native American lands west of the Appalachian mountains after the British won the lands from the French and Indian war (also known as the Seven Years War, from 1754-1763). During the American Revolution, there were Native American groups that supported the British and others that supported the Patriots. However, after the war, the new United States government continued its expansion westward and the Native American groups definitively lost land.
