During the Jackson presidency, they were forced to leave their homeland and move westward. This period is marked by the implementation of policies such as the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which led to the forced relocation of many Native American tribes from their ancestral lands, particularly those in the Southeastern United States, to designated territories west of the Mississippi River. This event is infamously known as the Trail of Tears.
