The Native people (Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek and Seminole) in the Indian removal act of 1830 came from the southeastern states (Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, North and South Carolina) of the United States.
The government of Georgia responded to the Creek Indians through a combination of policies that aimed to remove them from their ancestral lands. In the early 19th century, state authorities enacted laws to facilitate the appropriation of Creek territory and pressured the tribe into treaties that often involved coercion. This culminated in the forced removal of the Creeks during the 1830s, particularly through the Indian Removal Act, leading to significant displacement and suffering for the tribe. Overall, the response was characterized by a push for land acquisition at the expense of Creek sovereignty and well-being.
