○ the authority of state governments over tribal lands.
○ the enforcement of federal tariffs.
○ the constitutionality of the indian removal act
○ the legitimacy of nullification doctrine.

Explanation:

In Worcester v. Georgia (1832), the Supreme Court ruled that states did not have authority over Native American tribal lands. The case centered on Georgia's attempt to extend its laws over Cherokee lands. The Court held that only the federal government, not state governments, had authority over Native American affairs as tribes were considered "domestic dependent nations." This decision challenged the authority of state governments over tribal lands.

Answer:

The authority of state governments over tribal lands.
