What did Tecumseh compare selling land to?
Have a war to be started
What was the Tecumseh confederation?
The short answer... The White man was selling off the Indian territories. There were some tribes that were selling their land to the White armies and not all the Native Americans agreed it was theirs to give. The land didnt belong to one tribe or another, and you can't sell land that isn't yours. This was going on for awhile and Tecumseh along with other Indians decided that it was time to fight for the land that was rightfully theirs. So he banded together other Indian nations to unite against the Westward expansion which was pushing the Indians out of their land.

Why does Tecumseh equates selling Indian land to selling the air the sea and the earth?
Tecumseh believed that the land, air, sea, and earth were interconnected and sacred elements that should not be sold or divided.
