Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chief Joseph, is the right answer.

Chief Joseph headed a band known as the Nez Perce during the time when they were forcibly displaced by the federal government of the United States from the land they inherited in the Wallowa Valley in the northeast of Oregon upon a significantly decreased reservation in the Idaho area. A series of intense confrontations with white immigrants in the spring of 1877 culminated in those Nez Perce who opposed relocation, including Joseph's band and the Palouse tribe (an associated band) to flee the United States in an trial to reach state asylum adjacent the Lakota people, who had investigated shelter in Canada under the guidance of Sitting Bull. However, at the time when Chief Joseph surrendered in 1877, he said a quote "I will fight no more forever".
