For seventy-five years the eastern
half of the new state has been the
home of the Indians known as the
Five Civilized Tribes. Indian Terri
tory that division was called. 1t was
not properly territory as New Next
co is a territory or as the western part
of the state of Oklahoma was a ter
ritory until the consolidation and adj
mission. Indian Territory occupied
unique position in the world. The
United States put the five tribes there,
giving each tribe a certain division of
the land. These divisions were called
nations. They were the Cherokee. the
Choctaw, the Creek, the Chickasaw
and the Seminole nations. Each nation
had its legislative body, composed of
an upper and lower house. Each
rhad its governor or principal chief.
Each had its national capital. While
the federal government at Washington
exercised a more or less fatherly con-
troll over the large affairs of the five
nations, the Indians We're in many es-
sentials self governing. Perhaps it is
safer to say that they were learning
the business of self government by a
practical object lesson in the shape of
a miniature Republican, rather, five
miniature republics-in the heart of
the great parent republic around them
When these tribes were removed ear

native country. the Carolinas, Florida
