Explanation:

The Cherokee Nation v. Georgia was a significant Supreme - Court case as the Court ruled that the Cherokee Nation was a distinct community with self - governance rights, though this was not fully enforced. The Treaty of New Echota was a controversial treaty signed by a minority of Cherokees, which led to the forced removal of the Cherokee people. The Trail of Tears was a tragic event where about 20,000 Cherokees were marched westward, resulting in the death of many due to harsh conditions. On the map, traditional Cherokee land was in the southeastern United States (states like Georgia, Tennessee, etc.) and the new lands were in present - day Oklahoma.

Answer:

For Cherokee Nation v. Georgia: The Supreme - Court case affirmed Cherokee self - governance rights in theory but was not enforced, setting the stage for forced removal.
For Treaty of New Echota: A controversial treaty signed by a minority that led to the legal basis for Cherokee removal.
For The Trail of Tears: A tragic forced march of about 20,000 Cherokees westward, with high mortality due to harsh conditions. On the map, label traditional Cherokee land in the southeastern states and new land in Oklahoma.
