Question

between 1834 and 1858, American Indian territory in the united states shrank to less than a fifth of its previous size. in a paragraph, predict what an 1870 map of the American Indian territory might look like. Be sure to explain what led you to make this prediction.

Answer 1

Answer:

Mississippi, and not within the States of Missouri and Louisiana, or the Territory of Arkansas.” Never an organized territory, it was soon restricted to the present state of Oklahoma, excepting the panhandle and Greer county. The Choctaw, Creek, Seminole, Cherokee, and Chickasaw tribes were forcibly moved to this area between 1830 and 1843, and an act of June 30, 1834, set aside the land as Indian country (later known as Indian Territory).
