    Fourteen years after the Revolutionary War ended, Great Britain and France continued to occupy territory in North America, and Adams feared either force, allied with Native Americans, could wreak havoc on the young nation. The second president of the United States also inherited land-hungry settlers on the western frontier and growing tensions between fledgling state governments and tribes. In his first annual message to Congress, delivered in November 1797, Adams referred to relationships with the Indians as "this unpleasant state of things on our western frontier." Foreign agents, he said, were trying to "alienate the affections of the Indian nations and to excite them to actual hostilities against the United States."The same year, the newly formed Tennessee legislature informed Adams that the Cherokee Indians were occupying their territories as "tenants at will," or at the forbearance of whites, Clifford Trafzer wrote in his 2009 book "American Indians American Presidents."
