The political decision that ultimately led to the removal of the Cherokee, Choctaw, and other Native American tribes from the southeastern United States was the passage of the Indian Removal Act in 1830. This law, championed by President Andrew Jackson, authorized the federal government to negotiate treaties with Native American tribes to relocate them to designated territories west of the Mississippi River.
The rationale behind the Indian Removal Act was driven by a combination of factors, including the desire for land by American settlers, particularly for agricultural purposes, and a prevailing belief in the cultural superiority of European Americans. The policy culminated in the forced removal of many tribes, known as the Trail of Tears, which resulted in significant suffering and loss of life among the displaced Native populations.
