Andrew Jackson´s history with the Cherokee Nation was not ever friendly or the best. From the very beginning, even before he became President of the United States, he always believed that the Cherokees needed to be removed from Southern states and should not be allowed to exist as an independent nation. When he became President, he faced the conflict that ensued when the Cherokees demanded the recognition of several treaties signed between themselves and the U.S government and even Congress on the sovereignity and the correct management of the independent Cherokee Nation. When the state of Georgia passed laws that ignored the independence of the Cherokees as a nation, forcing white settlers within Cherokee lands to either sign their loyalty to the state, or get out, and even went so far as to imprison missionaries, from which the case of Worcester vs Georgia issue, these Native Americans appealed to the Supreme Court who repealed the laws passed by Georgia. But despite this, the removal of the Indians, and the violation of their independence by the U.S government continued. In the end, Jackson, loyal to his belief that the Natives should not be independent from the rest of the U.S and never having liked the Natives themselves, signed the removal of these tribes to the West, with a payment of 5 million dollars as well as protection from the government. The correct answers then would be: A and D.
