The Trail of Tears, refers to the forced relocation between 1836 to 1839 of the Cherokee Nation from their lands in Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, and North Carolina to the Indian Territory (present day Oklahoma) in the Western United States, which resulted in the deaths of approximately 4,000 Cherokees, although many of our people may tell you that it was far more than 4000. - JunFanFighter
The Cherokee traveled from New Echota, Northern Georgia to Oklahoma in the winter of 1838-1839. Over 4000 native Americans died in the trip.
The long and often fatal journey of these Native American tribes is known as the Trail fo Tears. The Cherokee nation was forced to leave their land and were made to march 1200 miles. Many died from starvation, the cold, and diseases. About 4000 died on the journey
The Cherokee people were given a very easy choice before the Trail of Tears, either: 1) Leave their tribal Homelands without any clothing or personal possessions at gunpoint, or 2) Be shot and killed.
Starvation was one of the hardships that the Indians had to endure during the Trail of Tears. Exhaustion was another hardship, they were forced to walk for very long periods of time. Many did survive the journey.
The Native Americans were driven barefoot through rain, snow and other harsh weather conditions. They were NOT allowed to gather much of their possessions, if they were allowed any, before the FORCED march. Also they were brutally abused by the militia soldiers though the commander of the army ordered them to help the weak & sick (at least he did something right), but of course none of them listened nor helped the Indians. They call it the Trail of Tears because of how many Indians died. (over 4000) tell us why it is called that
