USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -The First Seminole War (1817–18) began over attempts by U.S. authorities to recapture runaway Black slaves living among Seminole bands. Under General Andrew Jackson, U.S. military forces invaded the area, scattering the villagers, burning their towns, and seizing Spanish-held Pensacola and St. Marks.

Detailed explanation-2: -Osceola, a young Seminole leader organized opposition to the relocation. The Second Seminole Indian War began on December 28, 1935 when Osceola and a band of warriors killed the Indian Agent and four other whites at Fort King.

Detailed explanation-3: -In 1836, Osceola led a small group of warriors in the Seminole resistance during the Second Seminole War, when the United States tried to remove the tribe from their lands in Florida to Indian Territory west of the Mississippi River.

Detailed explanation-4: -A small group of Seminoles was coerced into signing a removal treaty in 1833, but the majority of the tribe declared the treaty illegitimate and refused to leave. The resulting struggle was the Second Seminole War, which lasted from 1835 to 1842.
