The Cherokee were located (mostly) in Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. It is important to note however that tribal clans were also in many of the southern states (Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, etc) these clans held smaller parcels of land and were mostly ignored.
All whites living on Cherokee land had to pledge allegiance to the governor of the state.
Georgia was the ancestral tribal lands for them and moving them to the reservation in Oklahoma opened the territory for settlements. This was the Trail of Tears.
It wasn't a state, but the federal government under president Andrew Jackson.
Cherokee Tribes are found in the mountains of North Carolina , Tennessee , Georgia and , I believe , Kentucky and are known as the Eastern Band. Others are found in Oklahoma and are known as the Western Band. Cherokee are found in Oklahoma because of being driven from their lands in the east to Oklahoma on The Trail Of Tears where four thousand or more Cherokee died. The removal was part of the white mans press to attain land , at any cost , from the Native Americans.
There isn't a clear answer on this. Records show that the last land given away in the Georgia land lottery was in 1832. The remaining Cherokee land was signed over by Major Ridge in the Treaty of New Echota.
