Where was the Indian territory located and why did congress create the Indian territory?

The Indian Territory was located in the central United States, primarily in what is now Oklahoma. Congress created the Indian Territory in the early 19th century as part of a policy to relocate Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in the eastern states, in an effort to make way for American settlers and agricultural expansion. This relocation was formalized through treaties and acts, most notably the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which aimed to reduce conflicts between settlers and Native Americans. The territory was intended as a designated area for various tribes to live, although it eventually became a site of further displacement and hardship for Native peoples.
