Andrew Jackson led the US Army against the Muscogee (Creek Confederation) during the Creek War (1813-1814).
In August 30, 1813 a faction of the Creek Indian Nation called the Red Sticks slew nearly 250 Alabama settlers in a brutal manner, resulting in the calling out of two 2,500 man forces, one under Jackson to punish and stop the Indians.
The Creek nation (only a fraction of which had been in rebellion) was essentially crushed. They were forced to cede three fifths of the present state of Alabama and one fifth of Georgia.
