The Choctaws didn't have enough tents , shoes , food , blankets and winter clothes . heavy rain and snow caused enormous suffering. they walked for 24 barefoot through the show and ice before reaching shelter.
The Cherokees held out a few years longer. they were forced to march hundreds of miles. they had little food and shelter. Many did not survive. Of 15,000 cherokees who began the trip , 4,000 died along the way.
The five civilized tribes of the whites (The Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws, and Seminoles)occupied sizable tracts of land in Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida. The Portions of these tribes had accepted the teachings of the white missionaries and had accepted Christianity, white inventions, and even the concept of slavery.

If by "discouraged their removal" you mean as in the European settlers not wanting them to go.. then there is almost nothing that was discouraging about their removal to the colonials. Gold in Georgia and Tennessee were considered far more valuable then native American lives. But to the Cherokees, they were being forcefully removed from their sacred land, where generation upon generation has hunted, fished, lived, and died.
Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830. In the case of Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, Supreme court ruled in favor of cherokees. they could keep their land. Jackson didnt care and ignored the judgment of SUPREME COURT and forced the cherokees to oklahoma (trail of tears)
