How you count who was one group or who were separate groups is difficult at this date. There were at least 15 tribes. However, the Creek were a Confederation of 11 or more tribe stretching all across the south. Where the State of Georgia is today the largest part was occupied by the Creek Confederacy and the Cherokee, who had their capital and newspaper there. They were forcibly removed to Oklahoma in 1838. This was largely due to actions of Georgian politicians acting with federal sympathizers like President Jackson. They wanted the land, especially after the Georgia gold rush of 1829. It was opposed by others including the Supreme Court. The resulting removal is known as the Trail of Tears. What was in Georgia and what wasn't depends on the time period. These two groups stretched over what is now many states and the borders changed over time. Also, land claimed by "Georgia" went all the way to the Mississippi river until given up in 1802 after the Yazoo land scandal. Early Georgian history is in large part about politicians and powerful men claiming state's right order to steal things like land from the native people or money from investors for land they did not own. The Creek, actually known as the Muscogee were not one people but were a confederacy of tribes consisting of Yuchi, Koasati, Alabama, Coosa, Tuskeegee, Coweta, Cusseta, Chehaw (Chiaha), Hitchiti, Tuckabatchee, Oakfuskee, and many others. Other people were the Timucua, Guale, Yamasee, Miccosukee, and Apalachee, Apalachicola, ,Arapaha, Cascangue, Icafui (or Icafi), Mocama (or Tacatacuru), Oconi, Yufera , and Yui. Later the Shawnee and Yuchi were forced into what is now Georgia. There are no Federally recognized tribes in Georgia today although there are American Indians who live there. As of 2007, there are two State recognized Cherokee groups and one Creek group. There are 18 unrecognized groups some who are still trying to gain recognition. If you include the boundaries of the Georgia Colony which includes much of what is Alabama and Mississippi then there were many more native peoples.
