a the united states acquired michigan.
b canada became part of the british empire.
c the united states agreed to stop stealing british slaves.

Explanation:

The Treaty of Ghent (1814) ended the War of 1812, and its key terms included the restoration of all conquered territories to their pre-war owners. Option A is incorrect because Michigan was already part of the US before 1814. Option B is incorrect as Canada was already part of the British Empire prior to the treaty. Option C is unrelated to the treaty's terms.

Answer:

D. Seized lands were returned to their respective countries.
