it divided the Cherokees
The Treaty of New Echota became known as the agreement that facilitated the forced removal of the Cherokee Nation from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States, leading to the Trail of Tears. Signed in 1835 by a small faction of the Cherokee, it was opposed by the majority of the tribe and resulted in significant suffering and loss of life during the 1838 relocation. The treaty is often viewed as a controversial and tragic chapter in U.S. history regarding Native American rights and sovereignty.
Pickney's Treaty was significant to the US because it granted America access through the Mississippi River and the port of New Orleans. The treaty went into effect on October 27, 1795.
The Treaty of San Lorenzo, also known as Pinckney's Treaty, was signed on October 27, 1795 between Spain and the US.

The Treaty of New Echota, signed in 1835, was an agreement between the United States government and a small faction of Cherokee leaders, which authorized the forced removal of the Cherokee Nation from their ancestral lands in the Southeast to designated territory west of the Mississippi River. The treaty was highly controversial and opposed by the majority of the Cherokee people, including their principal chief, John Ross. Despite lacking the support of the broader Cherokee community, the U.S. government ratified the treaty, leading to the tragic events of the Trail of Tears in the late 1830s, where thousands of Cherokee were forcibly relocated, resulting in significant suffering and loss of life.
They were forced to move to New Echota which was in Oklahoma.
The U.S. government found gold on their land and that's how the Trail of Tears started.
