Jackson Presidency (12h 59min, mar 4, 1829 y – 12h 59min, mar 4, 1837 y)
Description:
The seventh president of the U.S., Andrew Jackson was known for his Indian Removal Act, which expelled many thousands of Native Americans living in the East, and moving them to land outside the then U.S. borders into what is today Oklahoma. The removal was gruesome and many died on their thousand mile walk, which is why it is known today as "The Trail of Tears".
