The best answer is (D)

Tecumseh was a native American Chief of the Shawnee tribe. He was born in 1768 in Ohio. His father was killed in 1774 by white men who were violating a treaty by coming on Shawnee land. He decided to become a warrior and defend his land and his people.

At the age of 15, he became part of a band of warriors who protected invasion of their lands by attacking flatboats that were travelling from Pennsylvania via the Ohio river.

He tried to unite various Indian tribes to fight against the white men. He was killed in 1813 by American troops and as a result the resistance of the native Indians petered out and ended.
