3. Greatly influenced by the Protested missionary Samuel Kirkland, the Oneida was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided with the colonists during the American Revolution.
"who" is a restrictive modifier here, as it is not set off by commas. This means it is incorrectly modifying "Iroquois League" than "Oneida"
A. was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided - Incorrect because of the above pre-thinking
B. was alone of the five-nation Iroquois League when they sided - As per the intended meaning of the sentence, "they" (plural pronoun) should refer to "Oneida" (singular subject), but the choice of pronoun is incorrect. It should have been "he/ she" as per the context.
C. alone among the five-nation Iroquois League sided - Hold on.
D. were the only ones out of the five nations of Iroquois League in siding - "the" before "Oneida" implies it is collective noun ("The Football League") and hence a singular verb is needed. Therefore, the choice of "were" is incorrect.
E. only of the five-nation Iroquois League had sided - This sentence is set in the past, and no sequencing "had sided" is needed. We do not know what happened after the action of "had sided" was done?

Greatly influenced by the Protestant missionary Samuel Kirkland, the Oneida was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided with the colonists during the American Revolution.
A. was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided --- Oneida is the name of a nation or a tribe originating from that part but not certainly the name of some people and therefore it is not normally referred by the relative pronoun 'who'.
B. was alone of the five-nation Iroquois League when they sided -- it is not clear a what 'they' stands for. There are no plural nouns that the word 'they could represent.
C. alone among the five-nation Iroquois League sided --- Correct choice-- sided is the direct verb of the subject the Oneida.
D. were the only ones out of the five nations of Iroquois League in siding --The Oneida is a singular noun and hence cannot take the plural verb 'were'
E. only of the five-nation Iroquois League had sided -- had sided is wrong tense. There is no other corresponding past tense event that took place after their siding.
