The Indian Territory, created by Congress in the 19th century, primarily corresponds to present-day Oklahoma. It was established to relocate Native American tribes from their ancestral lands, particularly those in the southeastern United States, as part of policies like the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Over time, the territory was opened to settlement by non-Native Americans, eventually leading to its statehood as Oklahoma in 1907.
