Question

After the removals, Indians were dumped on Little plots of land called?

Answer 1

Indian removal was a policy of the United States government in the 19th century whereby Native Americans were forcibly removed from their ancestral homelands in the eastern United States to lands west of the Mississippi River, thereafter known as Indian Territory

The movement of American Indians off their lands in order for British colonizers to settle and farm the lands. This occurred trough removal from land and relocation onto reservations and through coercive (forced) assimilation.

The first stage in the settlement of American Indian lands by colonists, in which American Indians nations were treated as independent political entities (rather than as one large political entity), which made it easier to devise treaties with individual tribes, which would later be reneged on. The result was the continuous loss of land by Native Americans and the repeated push of these groups westward

The second stage in the settlement of American Indian lands, in which land treaties were reneged on, colonists encroached on treaty lands, laws were passed calling for the relocation of tribes to west of the Mississippi and tribes were forced into the western U.S and eventually onto reservations.
