Alabama was admitted to the United States the same year the Confederacy of the Arkansas was created: 1819.

In 1824, during the lead up to the Arkansas War, the Alabama militia had helped Louisiana and Mississippi drive the Choctaws out of their states. Alabama also took the opportunity to push out the remaining Chickasaws.

During the 1824 presidential election, Albama initially went to John C. Calhoun. When the election went into the House of Representatives, Calhoun helped deliver Alabama's vote to Henry Clay.
