President Jackson wanted American Indian tribes to give up their land for white settlement expansion. He implemented policies that aimed to forcefully remove Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in the Southeastern United States, such as the Indian Removal Act of 1830. This act authorized the government to negotiate treaties that exchanged Native American land for territory further west, with the goal of acquiring more land for white settlers. The Native Americans were often forcibly removed from their homelands and relocated to designated Indian territories, such as present-day Oklahoma, through a series of forced relocation events known as the Trail of Tears.
