<em>Around 2,200 miles.</em>
Explanation:
The Indian Removal Act was passed in 1830, this meant that many Native Americans had to move from their tribal lands to what is now present-day Oklahoma. If they did not move, they would have to be forcefully removed by the United States military and unfortunately, that was the case for many.
A lot of the Natives realized they did not stand a chance against the United States government, so they left by themselves and tried to avoid confrontation. Many of the Cherokee Natives did not want to move and even tried begging to stay in their homeland. The United States government did not budge and wanted to still move them to Oklahoma in order to expand.
Eventually, the Cherokee Natives were forced out and had to walk 2,200 miles to what is now Oklahoma, this walk is known as the Trail of Tears. The Native Americans were walked at gunpoint and many of them ended up dying from disease, weather conditions, dehydration, and other factors.
Well the cause of a certain event in history will mean something happens.
The effect is the result of the event happening
For example. With 9/11 the cause was the twin towers collapsing. The effect would have been thousands of people dying as the result of the planes being highjacked
Firing the joint chiefs of staff would look bad for Kennedy because it would make it appear to the public that the administration is struggling/weak. Anytime there are scandals or issues in which the president does not get along with his colleagues, it is seen as a sign of weakness. During Kennedy's presidency, the last thing the United States government wanted was to appear weak. This is because the US was in constant competition with the Soviet Union for international power and influence.
