the native Americans that lived in pre-colonial Georgia were the Cherokee and the creek.
The case of Worcester v. Georgia (1832) centered on the legality of Georgia's laws that restricted non-Native Americans from being present on Native American lands without a license. The Supreme Court ruled that the state of Georgia had no authority to impose its laws on Cherokee territory, affirming the sovereignty of Native American nations. This decision highlighted the conflict between federal authority and state laws regarding Native American rights, but it was largely ignored by President Andrew Jackson, leading to the forced removal of Native Americans in the Trail of Tears.

No, the Hopi Nation is not native to Georgia. The Hopi people primarily reside in northeastern Arizona, specifically on the Hopi Reservation, which is located in the region of the Colorado Plateau. They are known for their rich cultural traditions and agricultural practices, particularly in growing corn. Georgia is home to other Native American tribes, such as the Cherokee and Creek (Muscogee).
The Georgia Compact, established in 1802, was an agreement between the federal government and the state of Georgia in which the federal government promised to extinguish Native American land claims in Georgia. This compact facilitated the expansion of white settlement by effectively ceding control over Native American territories to the state. As a result, it led to increased pressure on Native American tribes, culminating in the forced removal of tribes like the Cherokee through policies such as the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Ultimately, the compact significantly accelerated the loss of Native American land in the region.
The state flower of Georgia is the Cherokee Rose. It is very likely that this is the Georgia state flower in that the Native American Tribe, the Cherokee once had their land here.
