Who was Joseph Brant?

  1. A Loyalist leader

  2. A French General

  3. A British Parliament member

  4. A Loyalist Mohawk leader

The correct answer is: A Loyalist Mohawk leader

Joseph Brant was a Loyalist Mohawk leader, meaning he was a chief or influential member of the Mohawk Native American tribe who remained loyal to the British during the American Revolution. Option A is incorrect because while he was a Loyalist, he was specifically a Mohawk leader and not a leader of all Loyalists. Option B is incorrect because Brant was not a French General, he was a leader within his own Indigenous community. Option C is incorrect because while he may have had connections to the British Parliament, he was not a member. This makes D the most accurate answer.
