Georgia (1832) & Cherokee Nation v. Georgia (1831)After the passing of the Indian Removal Act by President Johnson in 1830, Native American's took theircause to the Supreme Court, hoping that the act would be ruled unconstitutional.Cherokee Nation v. Georgia (1831) Ruling:Draw1A question of much more difficulty remains. Do the Cherokees constitute a foreign state in2 the sense of the constitution?... They are not a state of the Union...not owing allegiance to3the United States...The condition of the Indians in relation to the United States is, perhaps,unlike that of any other two people in existence... They acknowledge themselves, in their45 treaties, to be under the protection of the United States; they admit, that the United Statesshall have the sole and exclusive right of regulating the trade with them, and managing alltheir affairs as they think proper; and the Cherokees in particular... their relation to the8 United States resembles that of a ward (child) to his guardian. They look to our governmentfor protection: rely upon its kindness and its power, appeal to it for relief to their wants; andaddress the president as their great father. They and their country are considered by foreignnations, as well as by ourselves, as being so completely under the sovereignty and dominionof the United States....Worcester v. Georgia (1832) Ruling:.... consider the several Indian nations as distinct political communities, having territorial2 boundaries, within which their authority is exclusive, and having a right to all the lands3 within those boundaries, which is not only acknowledged, but guaranteed by the United4 States. The Cherokee Nation, then, is a distinct community, occupying its own territory,5 with boundaries accurately described, in which the laws of Georgia can have no force, andwhich the citizens of Georgia have no right to enter but with the permission of theCherokees themselves or in conformity with treaties and with the acts of Congress.351.
