What was the Georga Compact and what was its effect upon the taking of Indians lands?

The Georgia Compact, enacted in 1802, was an agreement between the federal government and the state of Georgia, where the federal government promised to extinguish Native American land claims in Georgia and the surrounding region. This compact facilitated the rapid expansion of white settlement by enabling the state to acquire vast tracts of land inhabited by Native American tribes, culminating in the forced removal of many Indigenous peoples from their ancestral lands. The effects were devastating, leading to significant loss of territory and resources for Native Americans, and ultimately contributing to events like the Trail of Tears.
