The Cherokee Indian removal, known as the Trail of Tears, ended in the late 1830s after a series of forced relocations that resulted in the suffering and death of thousands. The U.S. government, under President Andrew Jackson, implemented the Indian Removal Act of 1830, leading to the displacement of the Cherokee from their ancestral lands in the Southeast to designated Indian Territory in present-day Oklahoma. The removal process faced significant resistance and legal challenges, but ultimately, the federal government enforced the relocation, culminating in the tragic journey in 1838-1839. The aftermath left a lasting impact on the Cherokee Nation and its people.
