The Native Americans were compelled to move westward primarily due to the expansion of European settlers and the U.S. government's policies, including treaties that were often broken. The discovery of gold and other resources in the West led to increased migration by settlers, further encroaching on Native lands. Additionally, the Indian Removal Act of 1830 facilitated the forced relocation of several tribes, resulting in significant displacement and suffering. These factors combined created an environment where Native Americans had little choice but to move westward.
