During the 1800s, life for the Cherokee was challenging and filled with turmoil because of the forced relocation and displacement they had to endure. For example, they were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States and relocated to unfamiliar territories as part of the Indian Removal Act. Another example is that they faced numerous hardships during their journey, such as exposure to harsh weather conditions, disease outbreaks, and inadequate provisions, which resulted in the loss of thousands of lives.
