The CherokeeStrip of Kansas, in the United States, was a disputed strip of land on the southern border of the state.
The Cherokees immediately complained, saying that it was not the true boundary and that the border of Kansas should be moved north to accommodate the actual border of the Cherokee land.
The strip in question ran from the Neosho River to the 100th meridian and amounted to 434,679.36 acres (1,759 km²).
