Question

The Tiffin Report claimed that this state’s soil was unfit for farming and led Congress to prohibit awarding veterans with its land. This state’s first territorial governor was court-martialed by James Madison for surrendering a fort that was earlier defended (10[1])by Henry (10[1])Gladwin. The 1848 Democratic presidential nomination (10[1])of a senator (10[1])from this state (10[2])led an antislavery faction (10[1]-5[2])to field (10[1])Martin Van Buren (-5[1])as the Free (10[1])Soil party (-5[1])candidate. (-5[2]) In 1822, John Jacob Astor moved the headquarters of the American Fur (-5[1])Company to an (-5[1])island in this state that (10[1])banned (10[9])cars. (10[1])Before (10[5])becoming (10[2])Secretary of (10[3]-5[1])State, Lewis Cass served as a senator from this (10[1])state. With (10[1])its southern neighbor, this state fought the Toledo (10[2])War. (10[1])For 10 (10[1])points, name this (10[1])state whose former territorial capital was at Fort (10[2])Detroit. (10[5])■END■
