The Seminole Wars: Resistance and Deportation
Between 1816 and 1858, three successive wars pitted the United States against the Seminole nation of Florida. These conflicts arose from American territorial expansion and Seminole refusal to abandon their ancestral lands. The First War (1816-1819) saw Andrew Jackson invade Spanish Florida, precipitating the territory's acquisition by the United States in 1821.
Under leaders like Osceola, the Seminoles developed formidable guerrilla warfare in the Everglades. The Second War (1835-1842) cost 1,500 American lives and $40 million. Despite Osceola's treacherous capture in 1837, resistance continued. The Third War (1855-1858) completed deportation to Oklahoma, leaving only a few hundred Seminoles hidden in Florida's swamps.
