Answer:

D. It all became the government's property.

Step-by-step explanation:

After the Revolutionary War, the government owned all land, except for the land within the 13 original colonies and a few areas outside of them. The land owned by the government was then known as The Public Domain. Some of this land was given to soldiers as payment for having fought in the war. On the other hand, some land was used to raise money for the government through auctions.
