Descrição: Land was the key to the white man's chance for success and happiness. Because the state government had a duty to fulfill the promise of this opportunity and to impose order where there was disorder, lands that were primitively used or underused by Indians required acquisition and improvement. [...]organized behavior was not sanctioned by the state and thus challenged state authority. [...]extralegal behavior by gangs threatened the idea of white supremacy and gave Georgia leaders less credible justifications for removing an "uncivilized" people like the Cherokee. [...]notably absent is a substantive perspective of the Cherokee experience, especially during their actual removal from the state.
