Best Answer

All five of the "civilized tribes" that were illegally expelled from their property made every effort to live peacefully with their white neighbors. Unfortunately for justice, the whites had more guns, and the victims would have been massacred if they had resisted.

Is the Trail of Tears made out of tears?

No, this is a metaphor. The Trail of Tears was such a horrible chapter in US history. Thousands of people from the tribes who were force relocated died along the way. They were treated so poorly, and pushed so hard, that the various routes taken were collectively known as "The Trail Where We Cried" by those who were forced to walk it. Later, the name was shortened to The Trail of Tears.
