Executive Order 9066 Summary-

As part of Executive Order #9066, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt effectively authorizes the United States Secretary of War, now known as the Secretary of Defense, to be able build military areas in which people may be excluded, as defined by his own standards. The Secretary of War would then be able to control all transportation, shelter, flow of food, on top of any other accommodations that are rendered necessary for the people who have to live in the specific camps. Compliance was required, no exceptions, and federal troops could be deployed in these areas.

This is a picture of the Dawes Act of 1887, where they sent Indians to reservations and took a lot of their land.
