/ðə ˌfaɪv ˌsɪvəlaɪzd ˈtraɪbz/
- the name used to refer to five groups of Native-American people in the South: the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek and Seminole. The tribes were forced to leave their own lands and settle in the Indian Territory, even though it was thought that they could be trusted because they had developed their own versions of the American Constitution and US laws.
五个文明部落：这个名字曾经用来指代南方的五个美洲原住民群体：切诺基，乔克托，契卡索，克里克和塞米诺尔。这些部落被迫离开自己的土地并定居在印度领土，尽管人们认为它们是可以信任的，因为他们制定了自己的《美国宪法》和美国法律。
