Answer:
The Indian Removal was a policy of the United States government in the nineteenth century that sought to move Native American tribes that lived in the east of the Mississippi River to land west of the river. During the decades that followed the War of the Independence of the United States, the rapid increase of the population of the country resulted in numerous treaties in which Native American lands were purchased. Finally, the government of the United States began to encourage the Indian tribes to sell their lands by offering them lands in the west, outside the borders of the then existing states of the country, where the tribes could settle again. This process was accelerated by the approval of the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which provided funds to President Andrew Jackson to carry out relocation agreements. It is estimated that some 100,000 Amerindians were moved west as a result of this policy, most of them emigrating during the 1830s, settling in what was known as the Indian Territory.
The Jackson administration put great pressure on the tribal leaders to sign transfer treaties. This pressure created serious divisions within the Native nations, because different tribal leaders defended different responses to the issue of relocation. Sometimes, US government officials ignored tribal leaders who resisted signing transfer treaties and only dealt with those who supported the policy. The Treaty of New Echota, for example, was signed by a prominent faction of the Cherokee leaders, but not by the leaders the tribe had chosen. The terms of the treaty were imposed by President Martin Van Buren, which led to the death of an estimated 4,000 Cherokee (mostly due to illness) on the Trail of Tears.
