There are several cities around the world named Independence, including in the United States (Kansas, Missouri, Ohio), Belize, and South Africa. It would be helpful to specify which country you are referring to.
The Oregon Trail did not start at Indianapolis. It started at any of several "jumping off" points on the shores of the Mississippi River. Common starting places included St. Joseph, which had the furthest west train service of any trains in the 1840s. From that point travelers would start riding horses, mules, oxen and/or wagons to get to Independence and Kansas City, Missouri, on the western side of Missouri state.
Well if we pick a town on the southern Oregon coast, say Brookings Oregon, the drive miles from Kansas City, Missouri would be 1,928.
The Oregon Trail no longer exists. Paved roads run close to the route taken by The Oregon Trail. So it is possible to drive a route similar to that taken by The Oregon Trail. It would not be safe to try to follow the exact route of The Oregon Trail.
The physical features of the land that would most likely slow traveler going west to Oregon in the 1800's were the rivers and mountains. Civilization has since brought bridges and roads through the mountains to speed up travel going west to Oregon.
That would be Missouri.
Do you mean Roman Roads
That would be Oregon.
It would be better to ask when doesn't it rain in Oregon.
The Missouri Compromise allowed Maine and Missouri to enter the United States. Maine would be a free states, while Missouri would be a slave state.
To travel from Kansas to Oregon you would have to travel North.
Yes, it is possible to be emancipated at the age of 17 in Missouri, but it is not guaranteed. You would need to meet certain requirements, such as being able to financially support yourself and demonstrate maturity and independence. It would involve going through the legal process to petition the court for emancipation.
