The first of the Five Civilized Tribes to be removed to the west was the Choctaw Tribe. This was as a result of the United States government's Indian policy which was implemented in the 1830's and 1840's.

What did white encroachment do to Indian tribes?

As people began to move west they wanted the Native American lands. The Indian Relocation Act of 1830 officially said that the tribes were to be removed. From the very moment of the first colony the European settlers did their best to kill, remove, or displace the Native tribes from their lands. The government made treaties they broke and they forcibly removed people to reservations. The Federal army would go into a sleeping village early in the morning and kill men, women, and children. The government policy was a " good Indian was a dead one" and they would do anything to accomplish this task. Read Black Elk Speaks or Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee for further understanding of the genocide that was committed.

What allowed president Jackson to begin the forcible removal of the five tribes?

President Andrew Jackson was able to begin the forcible removal of the Five Civilized Tribes due to the passage of the Indian Removal Act in 1830, which he strongly supported. This legislation authorized the federal government to negotiate treaties for the relocation of Native American tribes to lands west of the Mississippi River. Jackson's determination to expand U.S. territory and promote agricultural development in the Southeast further motivated the implementation of this policy, despite significant opposition and legal challenges from Native Americans and their allies.
