the Seminole resisted the removal from the government because they wanted the land which the Indians lived and the seminole, cherooke, chikawa, and 2 other tribes were removed from their homes. that removal was called trial of tears. the way the seminoles resisted is by putting up a fight to keep their land but a group of their own of about 20 to 40 sighned the treaty and that made all seminoles have to move.
