Adds evidence for the distinction between coercive reach and routine administration.
Chapter 12 traces the conditional amnesty offer, divided meetings and oath-taking, persistent local intimidation, growing submission, and the administration's decision to continue the expedition. It does not establish unanimously accepted compliance.
Slaughter describes conditional amnesty negotiations and growing local submission alongside continuing military preparations. Federal officials did not regard the submission as sufficiently general or durable; the expedition also served wider demonstrative aims.
