What did the Indian Removal Act do/say?

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The Indian Removal Act was signed into law by President Andrew Jackson on May 28, 1830, authorizing the president to grant unsettled lands west of the Mississippi in exchange for Indian lands within existing state borders. A few tribes went peacefully, but many resisted the relocation policy. During the fall and winter of 1838 and 1839, the Cherokees were forcibly moved west by the United States government. Approximately 4,000 Cherokees died on this forced march, which became known as the "Trail of Tears."

What river that Texas claimed as its border in 1845 is not part of Texas’s borders today?

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

RIO GRANDE..

Explanation:

Texas claimed the Rio Grande as its southern border. Mexico said the Nueces River, to the north, should be the border. The dispute simmered until Dec. 29, 1845, when the U.S. annexed the Lone Star State, and sent troops to the Rio Grande a month later. Mexico attacked in April 1846, and when the Mexican-American War ended in February 1848, the border we see today began to take shape.
