Jackson supported Georgia's efforts to remove the Indians from the state. He urged them to accept federal land grants in the west, move them and live under their own sovereignty. The Cherokee sued and the supreme court rules they were a sovereign nation in Georgia, but Jackson continued to try to move them West and re-settle them. After he left office, the Cherokee were forced by the army to move west and 1/4 of the died on the march.
