Plaintiff: Georgia has no legal authority on Cherokee land because they were a separate nation
Defendant: State officials wanted to remove Worcester because he had no license to live in a Cherokee nation

Which level of government has the authority, state or federal?

Supreme Court agreed with Worcester 5-1, only federal government had authority. President Jackson didn't enforce the court's decision which leads to Trail of Tears.
