Answer:
In 1830, Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act to allow the federal government to fairly, voluntarily and peacefully trade Native-held territory for land in the “Indian colonization zone”. However, the Native Americans were forced to leave the land where they had lived on for generations.
Explanation:
The government’s policies were set on behalf of the white settlers on the western frontier who aspired to grow cotton on the Indians’ lands, which the settlers thought they deserved.
Not only was unfair but also enforced with terrible violence, on what became known as the Trail of Tears: the trek to Indian Territory by foot, in chains, without any food or any kind of help from the government, where thousands of Indians died.
From what I can remember, states' rights was a large factor contributing to the Civil War. With Lincoln becoming president and representing the North, the Southern states seceded, leading to a war. The state governments of the South argued that since the Constitution and federal government was created by the states, the federal government had no right to stop states from seceding. President Lincoln and other northerners disagreed and wanted to preserve the Union by stopping states from seceding.
After the war, I believe the South still disagreed on a strong federal government. They wanted to rule the area by themselves.
