Best Answer

The largest tribe in America is "Dwhiteliers" (as called by the original native inhabitants).

On a more serious note, there are at least 4,000 tribes in existence (some think that number is at least twice that) - as listed by Cohen's handbook on Federal Indian Law and listing them all there would be a futile attempt.
