Best Answer

Because they eventually started stealing land from the Cherokees.

Answer 2:

________________________________________________

The treaty of New Echota was intended to steal land from the Cherokee, even though the treay before that one promised that the US Government would not take any more land. The Cherokee tribe refused to sign the treaty, so the US Government asked a few US Citizens to sign it on behalf of the tribe (for money) and they did. The US Supreme Court found that the treaty was invalid; but that did not stop the government from taking the land anyway.
