The Trail of Tears primarily involved the forced removal of Native American tribes, particularly the Cherokee, from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States, including parts of Georgia. The event took place primarily in the Piedmont region of Georgia, where many Cherokee communities were located before their removal. The Coastal Plain region was also affected, but the Piedmont is most directly associated with the removal efforts.
