What was the

Dahlonega Gold Rush?

What did it do to the

Cherokee?

This was the first major gold rush in the United States. Unfortunately, for the Cherokee, the gold was discovered on Cherokee land. The Dahlonega Gold Rush brought a huge influx of miners, as well as increased pressure from Georgia, who wanted to fully control the Cherokee lands which were within the state's borders.
