Detailed explanation-1: -In 1838 and 1839, as part of Andrew Jackson’s Indian removal policy, the Cherokee nation was forced to give up its lands east of the Mississippi River and to migrate to an area in present-day Oklahoma. The Cherokee people called this journey the “Trail of Tears, ” because of its devastating effects.
Detailed explanation-2: -What was Andrew Jackson’s role in the Trail of Tears? Andrew Jackson passed the Indian Removal act in 1830, which granted the president the power to exchange lands in the West for Native American lands in the East.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the 1830s the United States government forcibly removed the southeastern Native Americans from their homelands and relocated them on lands in Indian Territory (present day Oklahoma). This tragic event is referred to as the Trail of Tears.
Detailed explanation-4: -During the fall and winter of 1838 and 1839, the Cherokees were forcibly moved west by the United States government.
