The answer is B. The route used by American Indians being forcibly relocated west of the Mississippi River, this is following the enforcement of the Treaty of New Echota, an agreement signed under the provisions of the Indian Removal Act of 1830, which exchanged Indian land in the East for lands west of the Mississippi River.
