Indian tribes were primarily removed from the southern United States during the 1830s, a process culminating in events like the Trail of Tears, which specifically affected the Cherokee Nation in 1838-1839. This removal was part of a broader policy of Indian removal enacted by the U.S. government, particularly under President Andrew Jackson, aiming to open up land for white settlers. Other tribes, including the Creek, Seminole, and Choctaw, also faced forced relocation during this period.
