Answer 2

It provided equal opportunities for American Indians to own land

Step-by-step explanation:

The Homestead act was the American government's way of increasing western expansion. It was enacted during the civil war and any American citizen who never fought against the USA was eligible. It granted the citizen 160 acres of land assuming they lived on it for 5 years and improved it through cultivation. However, Native Americans were often not eligible and were kicked off the land they already lived on.
