What were the causes of such aggressive action in Indian Removal?

The Indian Removal Act was the resulting action of strong opinions and motives that white colonists and their government had. It was enacted on an entire people that had lived their lives on their land for centuries, and one may question how strong the motivation must have been in order to do so. One idea that hypothesizes about the roots of this motivation is the idea that the people of Georgia were responsible for the entirety of Indian removal. The land that is now Georgia was home to many natives, including most dominantly the Cherokee tribe. This land happens to be extremely fertile, it was a gold mine for growing crops and farming.One of the many reasons for Indian removal was the Georgians want to have the land for their own, because of the extreme value it had in terms agricultural production. After the industrial revolution, the land was near perfect for the use of new technology that allowed for more effective agricultural production. The soil that the Indians lived on was a contributing factor in their removal, Americans had their minds set on money and profits rather than moral values. Other than the more obvious economical advantages of having this land for themselves, Georgians, and most colonists for that matter, believed in white superiority over the natives. They did not view the natives as equal in any way and therefore their extermination was not questioned. This was another simple idea that can be argued as a primary reason for Indian removal, the colonists wanted the land, and the "inferior native population" was not going to stop them. The most thought-provoking idea for the cause of Indian removal was the sense of nationalism that Georgians and most colonists had. They believed in their country, and in their state, and in the rights of that state, and nothing would stop them from having that land as part of their state and country. No matter what agreements or treaties were made, Americans had such a strong sense of nationalism in the beginning generations of our country that they disregarded morals or their own countries values in order to obtain what they thought was their rightful part of their country. They had no interest in having American land shared with native non-Americans, it was their country for their people and it made them strive to make it a land of their own. When all of the different ideas come together, it becomes much more clear as to why the seemingly evil Indian Removal Act was set in place, it is an unfortunate reflection of some of our country's historical opinions and values.
