It is unclear how the U.S. government specifically enforced the Treaty of Payne's Landing. The options provided in the responses are not accurate or complete. The Treaty of Payne's Landing, signed in 1832, required the Seminole tribe to relocate from Florida to lands west of the Mississippi River. The government's attempts to enforce this treaty were met with resistance from the Seminole, leading to the outbreak of the Second Seminole War in 1835. The U.S. government resorted to military force to try to remove the Seminole from Florida, but faced significant challenges and ultimately was unable to fully enforce the treaty.
