Option - c

Step-by-step explanation:

Native Americans represented in both the State and the Confederate Armed forces during the American Revolution. Many of the tribal groups saw the Confederacy as a better option because of their opposition to a primary federal system that lacks respect for the sovereign rights of Indian nations.
