  1. Indian Removal Map Activity Background: In 1830, Congress passed the Indian Removal Act, which gave president Andrew Jackson authority to negotiate removal terms with tribes of the American South. The biggest tribes (who had already lost much of their lands) were called the Five Civilized Tribes, including the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole.

  2. Indian Removal Map Activity Background: The act was strongly supported by non-natives, many of whom wanted to settle on native lands. The idea that whites should populate the continent is called manifest destiny. Some Americans opposed the law, including many Christian missionaries who recognized the act as unfair and unjust.

  3. Indian Removal Map Activity Background: Much of the populations of these tribes were forced to move to Indian Territory in what became Oklahoma. Many natives died along the way in what became known as the Trail of Tears.
