General Winfield Scott led federal troops that forced the Cherokee west on the Trail of Tears.
When they were pushed from their land by force of the US government, and many died from illnesses, starvation, and battle, making the Native Americans very sad. Thus it is called the Trail 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.
President Andrew Jackson ordered all Cherokee Indians to be relocated from their home lands in Georgia, Alabama and Florida to a new reservation in Oklahoma. They were force marched there by the US Army. Many of them died along the route, "The Trail of Tears."
The Trail of tears was when Cherokee Indians were forced to move into Indian territory or present-day Oklahoma.
