The 1842 Slave Revolt in the Cherokee Nation, then located in Indian Territory (Oklahoma) west of the Mississippi River, was the largest escape of a group of slaves to occur among the Cherokee. The slave revolt started on November 15, 1842, when a group of 20 African-American slaves owned by the Cherokee escaped and tried to reach Mexico, where slavery had been abolished in 1836. Along their way south, they were joined by 15 slaves escaping from the Creek in Indian Territory.
Many historians agree that westward expansion was indeed the primary source of contention between the North and South in the sense that it made the question os slavery unavoidable. Each new state had to be determined slave or free--leading to disagreements that led to the Civil War.
