28 maio 1830 ano - Indian Removal Act

Descrição:

The Indian Removal Act, signed into law by President Andrew Jackson in 1830, authorized the federal government to negotiate treaties that would require Native American tribes in the Eastern United States to relocate to lands west of the Mississippi River. This policy led to the forced migration of tens of thousands of Native Americans, including the Cherokee, along routes such as the infamous Trail of Tears, resulting in substantial hardship and a significant loss of life among the displaced populations.
