Death March

A death march is a forced march of prisoners of war or captives in which individuals are left to die along the way, often featuring harsh physical labor, abuse, neglect, and deliberate starvation and dehydration. Notable death marches include the Jingkang incident during the Jin-Song Wars in 1127, in which over 14,000 people were forced to march to the Jin capital and many died along the way. Other examples include the forced displacement of Native Americans during the Trail of Tears, in which an estimated 4,000 people died during relocation, and the East African slave trade, in which slaves were forced to march for long distances and often left to die or killed if they became too weak to walk.learn more on wikipedia
