What that did was removed all natives living on the east of the Mississippi to move to the west side on reservations. This move was also known as the Tear of Trials. There was also a series of "wars" between settlers and the remaining native nations.

This effectively set the tone for all dealings with North American natives from that time onwards.

What federal Indian policy was applied to native Americans on the reservations in 1883?
