Answer:

The goal was to remove all American Indians living in existing states and territories and send them to unsettled land in the west.

Step-by-step explanation:

On December 6, 1830, Andrew Jackson requested the relocation of the tribes of East Indians to land west of the Mississippi River, with the goal of opening new stores for the settlement of the Americans.
