Just as the Abnaki Indians of Maine joined forces with the French in the 1600s to fight off English settlers and preserve their native hunting and fishing grounds, so the Shawnee Indians of the Midwest joined forces with the British during the War of 1812 to fight off American troops in a last attempt to save its already-embattled traditional territory.

I think the sentence is testing knowledge of the idiom "Just as X, so Y". Another error I spotted was the subject-verb error "Shawnee Indians...to save their already-embattled traditional territory". Curious to know the correct response.
