Detailed explanation-1: -The Removal Era (1820-1850) As the United States grew in population, the federal government sought to displace Native Americans to increase room for western expansion. The policy goals of the era focused on removing Native Americans from Indian Country and moving them west beyond the Mississippi River.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: After the expansion of the USA settlement, the natives were forced to move after signing treaties and selling their land. The natives were paid very low price for the land they sold.
Detailed explanation-3: -The indigenous culture was fundamentally crushed, and the inter-generational inheritance of indigenous lives and spirits was under severe threats. The slaughter, forced relocation, cultural assimilation and unjust treatment the United States committed against American Indians have constituted de facto genocides.
Detailed explanation-4: -An Indian reservation is land that has been set aside by the federal government for the use, possession, and benefit of an Indian tribe or group of Indians. The terms Indian country and Indian reservation are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same.
