The Trail of Tears is a truly a regrettable and a shameful time in America history and is due in large part by greed of settlers. In the pursuit of gold and really had nothing to do with acquiring land. The Cherokee had long called western Georgia home and they in fact tried to assimilated many European-style customs, including the wearing of clothing. They built roads, schools and churches, had a system of representational government, and were farmers and cattle ranchers. To answer your question it was The War of 1812
