What we now call Oklahoma was for Indians, huh. Would that have worked? All American Indians would be given Oklahoma?

That might have been the plan, but my knowledge is deficient in that part of our history. No doubt some smart passing stranger can fill us in. If the idea was to move all Indians in U.S. territory to that one central location I think the folks in Washington didn't think it through very well.

Apparently you don’t know your American history. That is the area given to the tribes who were forced out of the American southeast. Now
Known as The Trail of Tears that forced deportation was and is a stain on the US govt.

This is a map of what was at that time
