Answer: B) Age of Jackson

Explanation: President Andrew Jackson ordered the Indian Removal Act on May 28, 1830. The Trail of Tears was the route Indians were forced to go on in order to get to their new designated land. They were battered and beaten and mistreated by Americans who were guiding them away, after they had been forced to give up their land, in fear of war and battle.
