Best Answer

The Tsalagi (Cherokee) moved because of forced relocations and pressure by settlers. Originally the tribes were located around the modern states of Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Carolina, and Kentucky. Please note that this is general locations as there was no 'borders' as exist today.

During the "Relocation" era, they were forced off their lands and given land in Indian Territory, what is now known as Oklahoma.

Currently there are three main locations for the Tsalagi people; Oklahoma, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

Before the Getsikhuda Anegvul (Trail of Tears), Tsalagi lived primarily in Georgia and Alabama, but White Man forced them out to build their own colonies, and they spread out around Tsiyahi (Oklahoma) and Northern Texas.
