The Cherokee are a Native American people historically settled in the Southeastern United States (principally Georgia, the Carolinas, and East Tennessee). Linguistically, they are part of the Iroquoian language family. In the 19th century, historians and ethnographers recorded their oral tradition that told of the tribe having migrated south in ancient times from the Great Lakes region, where other Iroquoian-speaking peoples were located. They began to have contact with European traders in the 18th century. Under President Andrew Jackson, most of the Cherokees were forcibly removed to "Indian Territory" which was in modern day Oklahoma and western Arkansas. The Trail of Tears, as it's become widely known, was officially called Indian Removal.
