Question
why was worcester v georgia not enforced?
○ native americans refused to leave their tribal lands east of the mississippi river.
○ state governments supported native american natural rights to their tribal lands and allowed them to stay.
○ president jackson disagreed with the ruling and decided to ignore the supreme courts decision.
○ it was discovered that native american groups bribed supreme cout justices to rule in their favor.
The Supreme Court's ruling in Worcester v. Georgia recognized Cherokee tribal sovereignty, but President Andrew Jackson openly opposed the decision. He refused to deploy federal forces to enforce it, allowing Georgia to continue its actions against the Cherokee. The other options are incorrect: Native Americans' refusal to leave was the context of the case, not the reason non-enforcement; state governments opposed tribal land rights; there is no evidence of bribery of justices.
