bullet::::- cherokees - a native american tribe indigenous to the southeastern united states, whose official tribal organization is cherokee nation based in oklahoma, united states, which has 800,000 members as of 2005, and the total ethnic population in the usa nearly doubled to 1.5 million by 2015. however, anthropological and genetic experts in native american studies have argued that there could be over two million more cherokee descendants scattered across north america (the largest number at 300-600,000 in california). the beginnings of the cherokee diaspora was from their forced removal in the "trail of tears". later, thousands of "americanized" cherokee farmers were forced to settle across the americas (i.e. canada, cuba and south america-an estimated 90-100,000 descendants there ) as the result of the dawes act. in the 20th century, many cherokees served in the u.s. army during world war i, world war ii, the korean war and the vietnam war. these soldiers left some descendants by intermarriage with "war brides" in europe and east asia. some cherokees and other american indians might have emigrated to europe and elsewhere through the british and spanish empires. they make up the global cherokee diaspora.
