The Great Western Cattle Trail and the Chisholm Trail are both historic cattle-driving routes in the United States. The Great Western Cattle Trail runs from Texas through Oklahoma and into Kansas, primarily following a route west of the Chisholm Trail. In contrast, the Chisholm Trail runs from the Texas cattle ranches, through Oklahoma, and to Abilene, Kansas, located further east. On a map, you can find both trails stretching northward from Texas, with the Chisholm Trail being the more eastern route and the Great Western Trail more to the west.
They were trails that led from south Texas all the way through Kansas and Dodge City.
Kansas became a battleground over the slavery question due to the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which allowed the territories of Kansas and Nebraska to decide for themselves whether to allow slavery through popular sovereignty. This led to significant migration of both pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers into Kansas, resulting in violent clashes known as "Bleeding Kansas." The conflict highlighted the deep national divisions over slavery and foreshadowed the larger national crisis that would culminate in the Civil War.
The cattle wasn’t taken to northern territories. In fact they were taken from the western plains to railroad hubs like Kansas City for shipment to the east for slaughter.
