When you arrive in Indian Territory (how life has changed)

After the Trail of Tears and relocation of Native Americans was completed the Indian Territory was located in what is now Oklahoma. The years between removal and the 1860’s were called the “Cherokee Golden Age;” a period of great prosperity. The term applies to the successful emulation of the American economy, educational system, and federal and state courts by the Cherokee; the Cherokee Nation built a strong and prosperous infrastructure for a new beginning. Many individuals did not see it as a “Golden Age” because traditional beliefs and cultures were exchanged for assimilation into the American style.

Indian education was used to force Indian students to integrate into the American social system. Early on it was also a means of persuading Indian adults from being hunters to farmers. As hunters needed more land to survive, and farmers needed much less land; this allowed the government to assign Cherokee families a small plot of land, leaving land available for the large number of Americans who wished to settle in the newly acquired area.
