Directly the treaty had no effect on the Cherokee. Indirectly, and with speculation, the treaty imposed litagatable circumstance on nations that aid other nations, who could then be 'sued' for their involvement with that other nation and the actions that nation took. These ideals were not new, only refined and they have been further refined in international law since then.

How did John Ross argue against the removal of the Cherokees?

He lobbied against the passage of the Indian Removal Act and gained the support of some prominent Whigs, but it passed. He filed suit in the Supreme Court against the state of Georgia in protest of state laws that punished the Cherokee. The Court ruled that state laws did not apply to Indian affairs but that did not help the Cherokee where federal law was concerned. He tried to get a treaty approved that would delay the removal of the Cherokee but another faction in the Cherokee nation signed a different treaty that agreed to the removal.


Were Cherokee Indians bad?

Cherokee of North Georgia were farmers and wore the clothes of many Europeon immigrants. When they were going to be moved by the Indian removal at they organized as a nation and then were removed by treaty to Oklahoma.
